    I love FFXI dancer so much, can't say the same for FFXIV dancer

    One more thought on this subject.

    Honestly, there have been character customization games where as a chick I just wanted to put my character in a glammed out dress. Option wasn't there. Doesn't mean what existed was bad, but it was a bummer for me not to be able to explore that option when NPCs would run around in that sort of thing.

    For me, Dancer as it is reads reminiscent of Flamenco in some ways. Not inherently feminine by any means, but if OP is more along the lines of breakdancing or ex. Georgian battle dancing, I can get how there's a different vibe.

    But that's part of why I gave the advice I did with glamour. It's all part of the presentation, and if you get certain moves with say a muscle shirt, Nezha shorts, and boots it's going to read differently.

    Idk. In the end figure the best route atm is to see what tools you have at your disposal in-game and use them to get as close as you can to the vibe you want. Might mean going monk, might just mean using glamours. Hope you find a solution that works for you dude.

    Unfortunately, Dancer is one of those where no one can be really happy with when it comes to the feminine or masculine dances. It may be a technical limitation, where they would have to load BOTH sets of dances if they gave us manly dances and feminine dances. Or maybe they are simply playing it safe and trying to keep anyone from complaining about how its sexist either way lol.

    That said, my own wish is that they would have a variety of dances from one end of the spectrum to another and let us choose how manly/feminine we wanted our dancers to be. More customization is always the best option to me.

    Well, to each their own, but I think FFXIV DNC is great: flows well and has an amazing aesthetic and style. I feel like the job was literally made for me. Just give it some potency boosts and it’s perfect.

    Dear God, we aren't on this whole masculine feminine thing again are we, argh. When are people going to learn the masculine =/= male and feminine =/= female. Look I can understand someone not liking the aesthetics, but do point out how because something is designed in a feminine manner, it's for females. Equality isn't a one way street.

    I like helping people with their Job ideas, it's fun to help them visuallize and create the job they'd like to play most. Plus I make my own too, I'll post them eventually.

    So much this. Masculine does mean Rough cut, Strong, perhaps more abrupt. Using it as a word doesn't somehow exclude people. Nor does it somehow perpetuate the idea behind the term "toxic masculinity." We can try to be inclusive, but still use the word at it's native value to describe things. I can't believe how many people in this thread got triggered by this word.

    The OP basically just wants a few moves from the Hakka or B-boy style. Maybe even throw some tango in there. Tango itself includes male and female dancers, but is a Masculine dance, Meaning Loud and abrupt.
