This game is largely single player. As such it's not unreasonable for some to want a slightly more personal experience.

How is it "objectifying anyone? The fashion you subbed for will still be there and you will still be able to partake of it as much or as little as you want.

And demanding that other people must see your glamour isn't?

Doesn't matter it's intended purpose, only the fact it can be done.

So you're against people altering your appearance unless you don't know about it? Isn't that the whole point? You wouldn't know if someone was using this feature? You could argue that since it's official you would know, but you acknowledge mods exist and are fine with them. Double standard much?

"Everything I don't like is a waste of dev resources." That's all this boils down to.
