Now before you overreact

That's fine and dandy but for those of us who don't want to run around in drag we should have the option not too. I was cringing at the thought of not being able to wear the Yorha gear without glaming over it because they were going to put my giant masculine Hrothgar frame into a little dress designed for a petite woman.

Erm hate to break it to you but you have been able to have many many options for years to not look like your in drag, in fact those who wanted female looking outfits have been incredibly sparce in the game, robes and stuff on casters/healers guess what during the rough time period Eorzea is based on men wore a lot of robes more than women did as it was a symbol of status. So all this is just giving those that want to be in drag more options you already have far far more options to not be.

If you want to do drag, that's fine, you do you. But let me do me too. Some outfits just do not look right on men or women because the shape of the body is completely different so forcing male frames into female attire and vice versa should not be the go to. If you want options, that's fine, but since the minority of ppl would want to cross dress it shouldn't be forced on the majority so they can wokewash the game and appease a handful of players.

Correct some do not suit a masculine frame just like some don't suit a feminine frame but there is a thing called glamour look it up may help and again most outfits are designed properly with the odd one standing out(Shiva set, Genji set etc) , and lastly the very big key question you need to answer, How are you forced to cross dress?

And it takes tremendous resources to reshape outfits to the various body types, so if they only do a handful and put much needed resources elsewhere, that's completely fine with me. Cause they would literally have to create 2 outfits for each sex and then reshape each of them twice the amount they do now, when they could give us a new dungeon or fight or w/e else with those same resources, which is frankly much more important to the overall health of the game.

Now a proper point, these did take resources from something else but what none of us save the dev team can truly answer, but if i had to guess it would be they decided to do this over fitting old headgear on Viera/Hrothgar was this a good call no idea Viera/Hrothgar could certainly use the love but this has a bigger net due to effecting every race not just 2. I doubt would take from dungeon/fight design as dungeons apparently go to their newer battle people while trials/raids/ultimates go to the more senior members and this would be vastly different skillset to encounter design as a whole. One last potential this could've been done on their own time for all we know they've made no official call on these outfits as bare in mind they are just data atm not unlocked to the public.
