Nah, there was plenty of that in the male viera thread, too. And some in the original viera thread.
For a long time, I requested male viera look like the cute and small concept or the taller bishounen and slim looking concept art - either one would have been fine with me. And I've also made a suggestion to make them a little shorter than the females, which also received a lot of push back. One of the arguments people would use is that it was too "niche", and that it would be better if male viera were taller than the females, buffer, and ~classically handsome~ instead of bishounen or kind of kpop-ish.

I don't mean any disrespect to people who wanted them taller because they just preferred it that way - that's totally fine. But there were some people who kept arguing it was too niche and "diversity for diversity's sake", which I thought was silly.
