Men in Dresses

[Dashuto]

I... I just want to play video games.

[FreakinZMartin]

Please SE never EVER do this.

If your argument is basically "not many men wear dresses in real life", well, last time I checked there weren't many cat people, monsters or people throwing fireballs around in real life either.

As much as I'd like a big male Roe in a pink frilly dress, I can't see this actually happening. Ever. People in this thread have already (patiently) explained why.

I see it happening. The naysayers are fools if they think other very popular games do not already do this. Men in World of warcraft can put on dresses. You dont see wow get bashed up because of this. Oh and It was a feature within the game since it came out. Plus we do have a few dresses already. There are a kilt or 2 and skirts. The chest piece of light looks like a darn dress in its own way. So yep if other games do it and its not even thought of, a few extra tight ass people here need to loosen up and stop making dimonds every time the fidget and reply to a thread.

Yet again, missing the point.

There's a balance of "Realism vs. Fantasy". Varying races in fantasy settings is a normal occurance (Elves, Orcs, Beastmen).
Men in dresses isn't, even in an average fantasy setting now that I think about it.

You can't compare the two, that's absurd.

But sadly the "I'm being oppressed, don't you oppress me" will just get thrown in the faces of anyone who disagrees or provides any basic reasoning as to why. (Even if it's not an opinion that was posted)

I already pointed out kilts and skirts in context are normal actually (even in real-life) and a Renaissance setting.
Men wearing "Corset Style Bodice Chemise Skirts" is not. The style of clothing the OP is suggestion is a WORLD apart from a kilt or a small skirt attached to the bottom of a body-piece.

Nope, those are robes. What the OP is requesting is a completely different ball game here and you'd be a fool to think otherwise.
(As for the WoW gear go back and have another look, they're all robes to fit the low-poly design of the game which restricts gear design)

If however you can find a clearly female dress that has been fitted for a male character, I'll eat my hat. Okay?

That's the warrior of light armour set based off the original warrior of light, I wouldn't call it a dress because of the slightly draping cloth.

Calm down.

Some people pointed out the reason why the developers wouldn't add it, other simply expressed that they didn't want it.
They have JUST as much right to express that they don't want it, as much as you do in requesting it.

Derp.

In wow there are many crafted dresses including a wedding dress that both male and females can use, there are tons of them and nope they are not robes, kilts ect.
http://www.wowwiki.com/Categoryresses there is no gender lock for these dresses. No one complained about them and many have been around since 2004.

Very aware of that but I don't really know what to say as there's tons of stuff that's been done in other games and MMOs which doesn't mean we'll get to see them in ARR.

As a side note: If devs were to give us clothes in general that aren't gender locked (Lightning/Snow outfits, Valentione etc.) and especially dresses, I'd appreciate if they were at the very least flattering to the male physique.

I would agree. Now in wow nothing was funnier than watching a huge tauren pass by in a weddings dress. It was obviously allowed for fun and well in game people enjoyed them.

Male characters in WoW can wear the Lovely Dress, which is decidedly "feminine" in design.
