    I have never "tried to dictate what others find appealing". Acceptance that people in a shared-world game (or reality for that matter) will wear things you don't like is not the same thing as being forced to like it.

    I don't like seeing people in novelty animal outfits either. The proportions on the 2B dresses creep me out. I could pick and choose and make a list of things that bother me.

    But it's there, and someone else wants to wear it - so their appearance is none of my business. And mine should be none of theirs.
    Since everyone is so fond of dragging the real world into this let me frame it this way: you get up and dress in an outfit you think is nice and go out into public. You're going to be viewed by others in several different ways. Some people are going to think your outfit is nice, some are going to think it's inappropriate or slutty, others are going to act like you don't exist and go about their business and more than likely there are some that are going to imagine you nude. Their perceptions are altering your appearance in their minds. Does that upset you too? You don't know who's thinking what thoughts so you continue to dress in the manner that makes you happy. If you're able to accept the fact that, in reality, others aren't seeing you the way you see yourself, "the way you want to be seen", then why is it so hard to accept it in a video game?

    You want to say that the way you choose to dress in the game is no-one else's business, right? How I choose to view things is also no-one else's business.
