Relevant inasmuch as folks were seemingly arguing in absolutes about how it would be awful to see guys dressed in "less masculine" things (or whether women should be dressed in "more feminine" things). Even just treating it aesthetically, not everyone will find a muscled uber-macho guy appealing (witness the sketch in the comic, of what she'd find attractive in Batman). Nor will everyone find a softer, less Rambo guy appealing. If that didn't come across clearly in referencing the comic (and my stated caveat), then I apologize for the misfire.

For me, personally, I don't care to dress my character—either of them—in overly-feminine things. Much like me-the-player, the in-game aesthetic I go for is generally tomboyish (with a few exceptions). When I saw the icons for the YoRHa Type-51 chest gear—all those lovely 9S-inspired coats and vests and stuff—I was thrilled. And then I tried one on and... somehow, magically, it was a dress instead. That gave me Great Sadness, because that's not the aesthetic I want for my character. Give me the level 90 GNB artifact gear over the level 90 WHM artifact gear any day.

But others love to dress their characters in the most frilly, flowery things they can. (And then, frequently, carry a giant DRK sword.) And that's fine too.

In short: Options are great. Can we please have more?
