Apparently wanting something like this [what femroes should've been]

Why not just ask for FemRoe to have the body shape you wish for through expanded CC?

Both requests wouldn't be mutually exclusive, my point was less about asking femhroths to be like that and more about the notion that even wanting a non conventional body is instantly shot down with 'ewww!!' responses at the sacrilege of a woman being muscular

Much of the few Hrothgar art that's posted here IS of the 2nd spoiler tag verity, btw.
But even that's beside the point, I'd say that I don't think that's even the point of the race. The "Non-conventional" and core identity behind them would be that they are furries aka got-them-animal-heads-yoo. I see zero reason for them to have a masculine or buff shaped to begin with.

I mean, there's no concrete evidence but from all we know and have seen so far, it would suggest that to be the case: the males use the Roe skeleton, the known dislike, or at least debatable status of Au Ra severe dimorphism, the overabundance of the same body type for all non-Lala females, and even the mural you so much refer to has a body comparable to a femroe - heck, Gunnhildr herself was a femroe. All that points out that it's much more likely they'd use the femroe bodytype [not necessarily the body itself] as a base.

If you cannot identify the irony of claiming someone is throwing from the high ground and the bulk of your other posts, then I cannot help you.

You have failed to even attempt to identify a "high ground" I'm "throwing from".
If you think me typing "walls of text" is somehow a high ground argument, I think it best if we end our interactions.

Lets run through this.
The males likely use the Roebro rig because the devs wanted them to be big and have that stupid WoW hunch. They actively went out of their way to make them much smaller, thinner and have a more attractive male shape. This lets Roebro's keep their title as the tallest, biggest and beefiest males. Femroe? They never had a unique rig and are based on Middie females. All females who are not Lala are built from that base. Naturally an attempt at making a smaller, thinner, more attractive feminine shape to contrast Femroe is going to ... look like that mural, look like the Queen who looks like the mural and looks like Viera/ highlander, cause over all FemRoe just look like tall n big humans.

"the known dislike, or at least debatable status of Au Ra severe dimorphism" People poo pooing that amount to a drop in the bucket, the race ranks as 1 of the most popular and well-received for both genders in this game. Besides, their height is the example most point to and the mural doesn't suggest they would be smoll, just smaller than FemRoe (the males are also shorter than Femroe). Au Ra show us that the devs can see the point of a race as something other than a body type and are more than willing to get with that.

And if you think the mural and Queen look like what Female Hrothgar will look, then we are in agreement. But the mural goes out of it's way to show the differences in shape between them and Femroe, and the queen reflects that.
