Seems pretty straightforward to me.

If anything, ask for more revealing armour options.
You're missing the point. The amount of revealing chest-gear wearable by males in the game is small. On top of that the chest piece tends to be the centre-piece of gear sets. For example you're not going to look like a whm without the robe, but you still can without the hat. This is why having fur options isn't comparable to having hair options even if the amount of options is the same. You rarely radically change a gear set if you hide the hat, but you often do if you hide or change the chest piece. Not even the lvl 80 job gear takes the fur patterns into account. Most of the chest pieces hide them.

And this is why giving hrothgar fur options instead of more hairstyles isn't good, because showing the fur patterns would often force you into a far smaller selection of glam gear that will potentially make your gear set unrecognisable. While a hrothgar's head, that will almost always be displayed anyway due to how gear is designed, will have less options for hairstyles.

It's not really fair that for hrothgar players to show off more physical individuality that they have to pigeonhole themselves into the above situation, while no other race has to.

And just because we ask for more revealing gear doesn't mean we will get it, and even if we do it won't compare to the amount of gear that covers your whole torso and arms, and it won't change the fact that most of the lvl 80 job gear doesn't allow for the ease of showing off fur patterns.
