Please Stop Genderlocking Gear

[itachi-otsutsuki]

I don't call less than a century 'a long time' tbh. Given the total history of civilization we have only been accepted legally, fairly recently. And are still persecuted in many countries. That should tell you something. We are still fighting for our rights on a global level.

Also I have been in Europe ,lived there, worked there, voted there and have friends there. It is full of right wing bigotry and trumpism.

This is exactly why I play a female character otherwise I wouldn't have access to a bunch of pretty gear. It would be nice to have the option for our characters to where whatever without any restrictions.

I've watched a lot of news from the US and EU both, pretty much on the daily, hell I've even watched more republican and democrat channels alike, I have never heard of this, care to provide a source ?

Weird, I can go outside with no issue, even with my partner that is male and I am male myself.

Both US and Britain are aiming for a transgenocide, yes. No camps yet, but trans people are being treated like shit.

The obscenity bill going through US courts, which while aiming at porn, anyone with a brain will know it will be used to harm the queer community across the board as the queer community's existence as automatically obscene.

I dont watch Nick Fuentes or people like him, I watch less extreme opinions because that kind of extreme doesnt interest me so I guess that's on me, fair.

Also to your second question, I was more saying that LGBTQ+ people have been accepted for quite a long time now (which is good, just for clarification), it's not really a very recent thing. Once again I am talking mostly from an europe perspective, the US is a whole different thing on its own

Just for a US perspective, my childhood best friend just had to leave Florida after our governor made it near impossible for her to continue her hormone treatment for gender dysphoria. She’s in New York now where she’s able to access her healthcare normally. They are definitely coming after people, it’s basically the Christian Taliban. They’re already getting bills ready to ban gay marriage as well as lawyers to challenge the Supreme Court over Obergefell v. Hodges. Pregnant woman are dying due to doctors being afraid to treat them because if a miscarriage happens the doctor can be charged with murder. Human rights are being stripped away in the US, that’s why people are vocal and flying rainbow flags. The moment you are silent in this country is the moment you lose.

Going by Britain. If one looks at a shopping bag, on the side of a bus, on the flags of regents street, at adverts, at TV shows, on the packaging of everything from cat food to human pre-cooked dinners. You will see an LGBTQ flag at this moment in time. This is more representation than at any point in history one could argue. I'm genuinely curious to know why you think there is going to be a 'transgenocide' in spite of such overwhelming representation? The two do not correlate. It would be one hell of a ruse would it not?

As for the current PM in the UK, he is a neo Marxist who wrote for the IRMT. His actions so far have shown that he is indeed very dangerous and borderline tyrannical. But he hates everyone equally. Young, old, poor, straight, trans, man, woman, child.

but trans people are being treated like shit.

This on the other hand, I don't doubt is happening, though everyone is being treated poorly by this government.

This is a forum about FFXIV. Stop talking about politics in here. All your doing is getting this thread nuked in the future.
In topic for the thread. I am 100% in favor of letting the players decide if they want to cross dress or not. It's silly to still have gender locked gear.

[itachi-otsutsuki]

Kind of automatically turns into politics when people are literally replying with anti -lgbt slander doesn't it?

[Thurmnmurmn]

You don't have to reply to those. Just report them if you think they crossed the line and move on.

[itachi-otsutsuki]

Fine but if the thread gets nuked cause of politics it should be equally applied to those type of comments imo.

I am masc4masc and not evil. But yeah it's a bit of a frightening trend.. I understand that all of our rights are conjoined, they probably don't or are willfully ignorant of it. And the masc4masc is just purely a sexual preference and it's insane for them to let that get to their heads and think that gives them authority to slander more 'feminine' gays.
