Tbh some midlanders look androgynous as well just on a smaller amount, it works fine with the viera lore as well. I think 1 midlander face looks very androgynous in a smilar way the male viera do, male viera could have 1 more masculine face in a similar way to midlander or elezen.
But i guess this opinion is blasphemy lol
It's not blasphemy at all. You are allowed to have a different opinion, and I respect your opinion.

I see what you mean. I would say that male Midlanders are more traditionally masculine.

The male Viera do have more delicate features, but I wouldn't necessarily say this makes them female in appearance.

I did a comparison of the male Viera I liked most and the male Elezen I usually play.




Yeah, I would agree that the Viera isn't as manly as the Elezen (some people might actually say that my Elezen doesn't look manly at all, although I totally disagree). Again, just because you're not hypermasculine doesn't mean you're not masculine at all.

Like you pointed out, some Midlander faces look a little androgynous too, and given both their similarity to Midlanders and their lore, it's no surprise that Male Viera aren't as manly-looking. But they are manly to a degree.

I think it's safe to say that none of us expected male Viera to look like male Highlanders. But we did expect them to look like Midlanders, Miqo'te, Elezen, etc. And I think their current faces are good enough in that sense.

You just have to work with the customization options to achieve the look you want.
