Where is FFXIV headed in terms of sexism?

We could easily flip that around and say female physique in XIV is pretty mild too compared to any other game, especially TERA.

Like I'll accept the situation just because it could've been worse.

Sure, but the situation is definitely well balanced in FFXIV. It's not just a matter of being better or worse.

I'm not exactly sure about what kind of physique you'd want for males in the game, as midlanders are pretty much the minimum you'd realistically see from people used to drag weapons around.
