It's not that the females are small. It's the fact the males are disgustingly tall. They have zero reason to be that tall.

    Yes, to that point, they made Yugiri way before male Au ra existed. Moreover, as you point it out, Au ra were made to reflect Mongolia/Japan respectively yet they decided to make their males 7 feet? The issue with Au ra isn't so much the women, it's the men. Ultimately they already started working on next expansion supposedly so any input as to how the races should look are probably not being considered anymore. Thanks to Roda for bringing that up, didn't know they already started working on the next expansion, great news indeed.
