Not sure what part of the development industry you followed so far, but I tend to remember from my (fairly substantial) experience that being lighthearted is considered a good thing when talking to the fanbase. And if you think something like this is serious, 90% of the gaming industry (including several females that TOTALLY use their femininity to their advantage) will make you pull your hair out.

If you have no problem with having the option, then I'm not sure where the OP wall'o'text came from, considering that it's very clear, from everything we saw so far, that skimpy clothing is just an option, for both genders.

By the way, yes, there are ladies working on the game. While i'm not sure of their numbers.
I can appreciate maybe it's funny for you, it's not very funny for me, but obviously there are reasons for that I've already outlined on the last page. I don't think saying 'oh well the gaming industry is like that' makes it ok. Should we just not be concerned by things because a lot of people happen to think they're ok? I am concerned by the male dominance in the gaming industry, and I don't think it's ok. That's off on a tangent a bit, though. The OP outlines where my concern (not problem) lies, and outlines some areas where it seems male avatars are not viewed in the same way as female/females seem to be becoming sexualised (and again, no, not just gear). As I already said I don't have a big issue with how things are right now, but a concern for how far it might go. Again, for the record, not a huge deal, just wondering if anyone else is getting a bit pensive over it.
