About the races we have.

[Theodric]

Exactly. It's like we always have to fill some "diversity" quota nowadays, and not everything is or has to be a political statement. Like so many people pushing for male viera to look 'feminine' or 'cute', makes literally no sense. From everything I have read about them, they don't come off like that in my mind. We literally have females to fill that niche.

I think the people pushing for male viera to be feminine just aren't that invested in the race to begin with. There's also a very troubling and creepy slippery slope. It isn't difficult to make a very slender, feminine looking male character in this game. I see many daily whenever I'm standing around the market board. Yet it's never enough and the most fierce, vocal advocates seem intent on pushing the boundaries and much as possible. Reading between the lines I have some theories as to why that might be. Especially when you have people who are likely to be well into adulthood making creepy comments about Alphinaud whenever a thread is made about him.

I'm all for character customisation to be expanded. I just don't think it needs to go in the direction of accounting for every little niche in existence.

Let's fix things like the Highlander eyebrow situation first, I say!
