Can we get an andro-/gyno-phobia mode added?

[Soma_Farkreath]

I'm honestly just curious how you feel this could be done, would you want them to make every character model look like a plain white mannequin?

[Shibi]

oh no! You spoke the forbidden word! Yoshi P will ban you!

He does play as a lala, after all.



Small.
Small, small, small, small, small, small, small.
Angry.
Very, very angry.

How, do pray, would this mode work exactly in a game that is centered around social interaction?

Here you go.

I dunno whether the OP is joking or not, but considering how people behave towards femininity and womens bodies I think it's unironically an actual thing.
We barely get any of it anymore in the West it's basically treated as verboten.

There actually is a plugin for this.

And thankfully there's also a plugin for the opposite: Turn every Lalafell into whatever race you choose...just not a Lalafell.
Made this already good game multiple times better for me

I won't go into why I personally am suggesting it.
I think this is something a lot of people could use if they are uncomfortable around more typically masculine or feminine looking characters.
Optionally, if adding somebody to your blacklist hid them, that would work as a possible solution as well. If they did this and increased the blacklist size to be infinite, I think a lot of issues people have with various social aspects of the game would be resolved. (Trolling/Griefing RP, People blocking an NPC, Emotional Safety)

I think adding such a toggle would be good for the game, but I want to know what other people think as well.

I'm a huge advocate for equality, and removing social stigma. But in a social game, removing a persons personal autonomy on how they look can be just as bad. For instance, I get creeped out IRL with Lala players wearing sexy clothing. It just rubs me the wrong way on many levels, but I respect the right for people to play their characters how they see fit, and it is not my place to ask for Square-Enix to make it so I never see a Lalafell. Yet it would be more socially acceptable for me to ask.

A switch to make *everyone* a lala!

On your screen only of course; Leather Daddy Hroth would never know he was actually a Dunesfolk under all that fur.

(In before, only if they make a way to remove lala)

Ironic really.

Every year, people find more ways to be more sensitive....

Those phobias are real, and people have had them for all of human history. What is actually new, and more socially acceptable is the current wave of lack of empathy. Which for me is completely infuriating as I'm a strongly empathic person.
