I don't see why this topic is a problem.

It's common knowledge that as a society there is a demographic that likes to take pride in how they look and dress.
Why would this not translate to an MMO?

I honestly doubt that anybody here who is protesting against the concept of more options to personal a character go out in the morning wearing their pajamas.

I can't speak on behalf of everybody but I believe individuality to be a half-answer. It's all about customisation and making a character how you want them to be!

Again, we're not asking for FFXIV to be a dress-up game but for it to at the very least be up to date with current standards, MMO or not.
