Dancer a bit feminine

[Kolsykol]

this is FARRRR from true. games are now far more feminist than masculine as most people play girls and guys are scarce. i think you need to get off your high horse and respect that men have rights too. There's nothing wrong with wanting more masculinity in game when 90% of the game focuses on feminist aspects

What the hell are you talking about lol?
I never said that men don't have rights..................................................................

Games are not more feminine nowadays at all, especially not in the West.
Femininity is quite downplayed in the Western industry and more traditionally masculine shenanigans are pushed even on female characters because a lot of people are just performatively woke and demonize femininity as something weak and oppressive, hence why women have to look and behave more traditionally masculine in Western games,
Not saying that's wrong for those who want to do that, but I do think that there's a demonization of femininty in the West which is kinda messed up.
And Japanese games are an escape from that to a lot of us, I appreciate that the Japanese aren't as scared of femininity.

In Japan femininty in media is far more normal and okay, even amongst men.
Both men and women being more feminine or masculine is more okay in Japanese fiction.
FFXIV is pretty good with this all-around and gives a lot of options but still do align mostly with the norms still.
And I don't see the problem with Dancer being more feminine when others are more masculine.

I'd rather FFXIV be like FFXIV than to just have them reduce feminine features and put everyone into the most gender-neutral clothes ever as to not '' offend '' anyone.
I am not opposed to options tho, if people want to play a male character wearing a skirt then I think that they should be able to as well.

But I think that it's too much to ask for when people ask them to adapt animations for a job.
If they're going either way then they have to choose and you have to suck it up and deal with it.

Edit: Feminism isn't the same as femininity either lol.
The usual Twitter/Tumblerinas causing a fuss about video games are usually quite opposed to femininity and see it as oppressive and part of the patriarchy and all that.
Usually they're very young and are still figuring themselves out.

As someone who exclusively play female characters in games and prefer feminine characters I can tell you that I feel extremely excluded by most of the Western games industry.
