This reminds me of my /seacom that I had in XI, "Women should smell like sandwiches". Was rather stupid, but it amused me greatly. :3

"At times"?

I say at times because he's not in creeper mode all the time. Sometimes he acts normal, talks about taking his son to school and isn't pretending to be a girl trying to get laid.

By someone else's choice to play a female character, or so fragile they think its gay to do so. Do people not wanna be cute?

I don't remember seeing anyone post about that here. Have you been browsing the XIV threads on /v/ or something?

Bruh.

Imagine finding out your dad was a cat girl in heat.

(though even that has the connotations of reducing women to a sexual object).

Why do video games need to be lumped in with petty gender politics? People seem to forget these lewd glams were implemented by non other than Yoshida himself. If a highlander male wearing a speedo bothers you, or a female au ra wearing a bikini bothers you, play a different game?

Stuff like that was what pushed me away from Balmung.

It's unfortunately pretty common.

Doing it once would be a little weird, but doing it consistently. There's something else going on here...

I have heard scary stories about that server. The most I ever experienced of "ERP" was when I was on Hyperion, and there was this advertisement up all the time for it.

Most of the time it is people from the other servers and data centers that come to the rp servers cause they think they are being funny for "speaking the language of rp'ers." Grow a thicker skin and stop being short sighted. I could just as easily say that anyone on aether or primal are elitist raiding cowards that have to run away from the boogy man rp'ers.

You hate rp. Got it. Don't lump everyone together cause of a few bad apples. Every group has them.

Coming on a little strong, don't you think? For one, I am pretty sure Theodric likes to RP, and two I only named "ERP" NOT "RP".

Be a little less defensive... unless you are an erp'er? *snuggle* *snuggle* ?

I never said it did? I ran around in a speedo all the time when I was a Highlander.

I was just giving a reason why some people get bothered by it. And sexual objectification of women in games is part of that.

Because they cant prey on girls to erp with when you're actually a dude.

Fr tho, i haven't seen anyone really complain about it nor do i see a problem with it. Maybe they just have really fragile masculinity and have to make fun of others to feel valuable, that or the whole mentality of assuming every female character is a male is annoying to them (which it kinda is to me too). Maybe just my own stupid pet peeve, but it's just a little annoying when some people think all viera are dude players; what can i say, i wanna play as a cute bunny too :/

Regardless theres always going to be someone who nitpicks about you in the game. Play the game good? Nitpick. Play the game bad? Nitpick. Revealing glam? Nitpick. Best to just get used to it.
