Can we please get more cool looking outfits for male characters?

To be honest. I'm half tempted to tell you no out of spite. I certainly would love to have better facial hairs and eyebrows on Highlanders, but like...They're clearly catering to a specific set of demographics with this game and this just isnt it.

I'm a bit confused by this. Let's say for sake of argument they are catering to a specific demographic, where does the spite come into it then...? Game demographics can change. They have adapted what they put out in response to perceived changes. The game is getting an influx of players from a game with a stronger bent towards male than female characters. It'll be interesting to see how they handle that.

To say nothing of the fact that the game actively promotes the Warrior of Darkness as looking fairly masculine in teasers and trailers as far back as Stormblood, so clearly their marketing team at the very least knows that such is a good way to lure people into checking out the game.

It's not even as if people are asking for hypermasculinity so much as more good looking customisation options for male characters. People who play male characters are a pretty large portion of the game's population - especially on European servers.
