Stop FFXIV Gender Inequality!

[No2631]

So wait, do you want to wear dresses or just sexy outfits? I think some of you are on different pages of the intent behind the OP's.

Perhaps slightly (I certainly do not think I can ever achieve sexiness as a Lalafell─another reason we're the master race, we appeal with our hearts!), but there's really no problem with people wanting the same thing for sexiness. It just underlines that there's more to wanting equality in clothing availability!

It's not a social norm for men to wear women's clothing. Although, it is kind of weird women get to share a lot of men's clothing, so I could understand men wanting to look sexy. But then comes in the definition of what do women think is sexy about a man? What do men think makes them feel sexy? Then cue a thread of someone complaining because it isn't their marginal view of what makes a man look sexy.

No, the discussion of "what is sexy" isn't relevant, nor is whether or not it is a social norm or not. It's also not a social norm for women to be wearing men's clothing, and depending on your country, it's also not a social norm for two men or two women to be wed to one-another. FFXIV, being an international game, does not need to abide by social norms and thankfully, does not. However, it does cater more to the female characters, without allowing men the option to crossdress.

And please─keep hateful rhetoric about homosexuality out of this. That is not what this thread is about.

I see no problem with requests being made of devs, the problem I see is these requests are often made under threats that by not meeting the demands, the developers are harming the players way of life or even infringing on their rights.

The rhetoric here is interesting but I don't see how this is even related to this thread. We're/I'm asking for men to be given the ability to wear dresses and bunny outfits as I don't feel they should be exclusive to females. Not a single word was breathed about threats and demands. No one's talking about real world social equality. This is a petition for an online game, not a list of demands for the sake of humanity.

Please try to stay on-topic instead of derailing the thread by pretending this is about anything other than wanting to wear dresses and bunny outfits as male characters.
