    making a non gender look for a Lalafell

    I'm trying to make a look for a lalafell that would make it hard for anyone to tell if it a boy or a girl. I seem to have trouble deciding on what hairstyle I should go with. Any thought on a gender-neutral character?

    Honestly?

    Just... pick a non-super girly hairstyle and you'll be fine. I've had a couple cases where someone thought Jiji was a girl, even though my hairstyle is literally used by a male.

    If you interact with any non-main lalafell players, they will have no idea of your gender unless you're wearing specific clothing. Because other races can't tell the different between a boy lala and a girl lala.

    Hmm, do the dice gods really care what hairstyle their sacrifice has? I didn't think that had a bearing on the taste of it's soul...

    As said, any shorter hairstyle without super-cute on/it will probably work.

    You should keep in mind to pick a gender-neutral title aswell! Or no title at all - keep in mind that a lot of titles appear genderneutral in english, but not in other languages, like german. We really love to gender everything and most of the time I use the title to tell wether a lalafell is male or female.

    I'm surprised that potatoes have gender.

    This is totally not true!

    But if you're wearing a helmet that covers your hair and face, and have an ambiguous name, and using the default idle stance both genders have, then yes, I'll have trouble. xP

    For characters with lore-accurate names, you can also instantly tell their gender (and clan) by their name because they have different set structures.

    ...with the odd exception of Pipin, who has a Plainsfolk name (Pipin Tarupin) but only uses the first half of it, so it looks like a female Dunesfolk name!

    male lalas are really goofy emotes so they stand out even if you go full hooded robe look
