Yup. I will always be on the side that this a complete waste of time and resources. All they have to do is just let this bag of bricks go, but they insist on carrying it around.

Who died and made you the Eorzean Fashion Police? What someone else wears isn't your business or your choice.

I dunno, I bet there are players who would want more masculine/short hair for their female toons. To be clear I am all for more hairstyles of masculine, feminine, and NB design to be added. It may not effect me much, but it would be a bit selfish to just care about my own needs in an MMO! I just feel the hairstyles given as an example where rather lazy and dull personally. Could also be due to not being a fan of that games overall style anyway haha.

Have to say personally I disagree. Women in suits kick ass. My WHM Glam is her in a butler-like suit and if the Mog Station one ever goes on sale I will be tempted to get it myself. I have seen players ask for more suits for women, and recently more so male players ask for more short-like looks for summer/beach builds.

While that is indeed frustrating, there isn't a lot of demand for men being able to wear dresses or skirts, especially not the ones from the eastern online store sets that are incredibly rare to see being used in game.

Even if that is the case, I do not see why gender locks should not become a thing of the past, especially in regards to future/new gear and Mog Station outfits. Customisation should also be open, not restrictive, I feel. Plus whilst I will not pretend to be an expert, I doubt it is the removal of gender locks that is hogging the resources/stopping new designs and updates being created.

Well, my interest in Rival Wings has gone right out the window.

Will have to test once patch drops honestly, the giant mechs used to be scary with right pressure and a good/average Brutal Justice decimates players with team support.

Same thing with the base operable turrets, those hurt.

I was hoping for the Nezha Lord's Attire and/or the Eastern Lord Errant's Attire to be gender unlocked, so I could have more options to create "tomboy Shōnen protagonist" glams for my character.
Oh well, I can wait.
