Male Spring Bottoms. What the hell?

[Theodric]

Nice, what happened to freedom of speech?
THere is something called FF14 blog, you can use it there if you dont want any opposite opinion, because those dont agree with you wont even pay attention to you.

Nobody is saying you can't say what you're saying, though?

It's a more a matter of you and others like you being nothing more than an obstacle. That's really all you are. An obstacle. An unwanted bump in the road.

It's already an uphill battle for people passionate about male glamour options to get anything accomplished due to developer disinterest. It's a real shame, then, that there's no shortage of people rushing to tell us how wrong we are each and every time we try and point out the discrepancies between the amount of options female characters get in this game compared to what male characters receive.

I honestly haven't seen any man wear shorts with the bottoms rolled up since the early 80s unless done for comedic effect... I want masculine shorts... i don't want to look like a child nor do I want to look like a male stripper...

[Skivvy]

Nice try, but that isn't what I said

Being overly flavorful with how you word things also doesn't help anyone's cause. Out of the "females" that came rushing into this thread and shared an opinion, one stated they liked pants in a rather neutral way, one suggested a modified version, one is implying people are just whining/complaining and the pants are fine, and the rest have been in support of guys getting equivalent styles.

I'm assuming you're in the camp that wants shorts as well (could be wrong, haven't seen anything straight out), but making a broad statement about "Oh look, another thread where some female characters rush in to tell guys what they should get up in arms about" is just insulting those who have been on the side of the guys trying to get equal gear.

I don't think he was referring to supporters, just detractors and trolls like Divine who see people wanting a benign thing and feel compelled to poop all over them for no reason.

Like, no one's asking for females to get less or worse gear here. Just for guys to get some more love from the designers. What's it to them if we want something?

Yeah, these pants are awful! Not going to waste gil on these when there are low level craftables that look better.

If the design team can't come up with a decent pair of shorts for the males then I think they should consider recruiting.

I'm...actually disappointed. I was expecting guys to get shorts too (but not that short) when I saw the female version.

They don't even look that bad. You guys are making it worst than what it is. Be happy you got something rather than nothing. Guys got plenty of shorts already in-game.

Name one other than the moonfair one that isn't job locked.
And no, we won't be happy we got something when that something is trash, and following closely on the joke Hildy mogshop set.

It's very poetic that a player with a female character would say this.

Put them on your male character then, which clearly must have an extensive and diverse wardrobe.
