    But what you want doesn't make sense with the world as it's presented.

    I see very little reason because said diversity doesn't make any sense. If an Au Ra man wanted to get a pair of boxer briefs to keep his ridiculously thick thighs from chafing, he isn't going to be refused service. Not to mention these don't even come from racial related vendors. You just pick them up in every city state from a Midlander. Highlighting racial differences doesn't make sense because everyone in the same location is under the same culture regardless of how tall they are or what animal parts are attached to their bums. The Gold Saucer outfits are infinitely more culturally significant than any of the current race lock geared.

    This is more of an aside to my original point, but if SE were to come out with a new outfit next patch that only fit catgirls, I think you would find very, very, very few people praising SE for increasing diversity. In no dictionary does limiting choice increase diversity. That is literally the opposite of diversity.

    Your example is that of unequal numbers of glamour sets. But if SE made one glamour outfit for catgirls and one for every race and gender combination, that would be the most diverse glamour a patch has ever had. Giving everyone their own version instead of one shared version increases diversity.

    Okay in terms of female characters, what's more diverse and a bigger addition:

    A. Every race gets a set that's locked to just it's race.
    a)Each race is able to wear 5 new pieces of glamour for to wear. Cannot mix.

    Or

    B. Every race gets a set and every race can wear each set.
    (b). Each race is able to wear 35 pieces of glamour to wear. Can mix between 35 pieces.


    Seems simple enough to me what's better.
