Male Viera as a playable character! show your support

[Awha]

The standard male viera should strive for.

I suggest you ask for a trans male option for all races; those of us who are not trans want to play what looks like us. I don't like the idea that people are trying to jump on ONE specific race to turn them into an lgbt race. That leaves out those of us who are not lgbt.

May I ask what a trans male character would look like?

May be pointless; but I'll just go ahead and say it.

What about folks that don't identify with the body they were born with? Like transgender folk? (and others obviously)

I'm a trans male, and I clearly have wider hips than a man that is cisgender. But hey, I'm sure this comment means nothing to you. /shrug

That is a variable SE has not chosen to account for, and therefore cannot be accounted within how the racial paradigm had been laid out in 14.

Ask Coltergeist, I have no idea.
From what Coltergeist explained the wide hips Coltergeist has is the one thing that's not available on "male" FFXIV characters.

I think you're right, it does seem like the design choice for male viera were inspired more by asian beauty standards rather than western standards. They look bishounen.

They look bishounen.

my lizard brain read that as Bitchounen.

But how do they look bishounen? They just look like twinks to me-- Unless bishounen is a type of twink.

I just did a quick search on google, but bishounen is "a young man of androgynous beauty" which I think fits well.
I've seen many people describe male viera as twink, but I'm honestly not sure what that means. Can you explain for me?
