Actually, they sorta run like Coco lol..

Yeah, I don't know how many female Au Ra gonna notice that their run is like Coco lmao

I hope this is a joke, because every class gets "racism" comments. My friend played a miqo male and actually was called queenie and worse. I played a lala and was called pedo which makes no sense. People are just jerks. Learn to report and ignore and move on or you can never be happy in game.

OP there isnt anything wrong with female midlanders, take it easy
if people are bagging on you blacklist them. i play an elezen. probably one of the least played other than roegadyn
tbh i dont even like the way my character looks in 90% of my clothing. all of my outfits are basically specifically designed to cover my neck. i even made myself min height so my head to body to neck ratio would be lower
if people are upsetting you and it actually bothers you dont hang around them. like what you like and find other people who are cool with that and if they arent then they suck anyway just never be ashamed of your preferences

people hate my run, despite it being a perfectly normal jogging stride for pressing W and the speed at which you move; in fact, part of the reason i dont play a cat or an aura are because of the animations. i feel like they over-exert themselves. dont they get tired running like that? theyre gonna pull something. what the hells the matter with them?
if you dont like it, never press W. or only press W when you sprint. elezen sprint like olympian sprinters. they have perfect form. hyurs are close second.

Tired of people being RACIST to my character just because it’s a female midlander. They will often say derogatory terms like “middie” or “princess run character” or “ditzy idiot female character”.

I’m TIRED OF THIS and GMs need to be more proactive about the in game racism to races in ffxiv. Ridiculous.

The entitlement is astonishing. I love it. It's such good bait. Tbh why do you care? Just block them or even better walk away.

Ok seriously. The post above me is probably the most truthful post out of this entire thread and possibly the entirety of the forums. It really sucks to hear that that’s what is happening in the world but it’s true.

It is true, and a harsh reality. I could also add that on average, it also takes males much longer to become established to the point they can support a family than it did only 20 to 30 years ago. This is largely in part due to the fact that not only do they have to compete with other males for top earning positions; they have to compete with all the females too. As a result, most men can't support families until they are in their mid to late 30s, and this is only getting higher and higher.

What many females fail to understand is that they are frogs in water gradually brought to boil. Males and females form a symbiosis, They are two parts of a whole. If one is made to suffer, so will the other. When you take advantage of cognitive dissonance on a grand scale, you can tear down a society, if not an entire civilization while making them think they are benefitting. IOW, many females don't even see all the foundations around them being reduced to rubble as their male counterparts that make up those pillars get bulldozed. Many are even driving the bulldozers.

so... does all this justify racism towards female midlanders? Throwing aside that this is more sexist than racist, the answer is obviously no. But hopefully it does raise an awareness that we live in a world where it is somehow odd and even shunned if a female midlander is or wants to feminine, but totally normal for males to invade female spaces.

That and massive wage stagnation combined with rampant inflation. Cost of living skyrockets while pay rates barely shift, the rich get richer while everyone else struggles and suffers.

FFXIV forums are really working hard to compete with 4chan / 8kun these days.
