    racism in FFXIV

    so, male aura here.. yea u know where this is going, but i personally think the amount of racism in this game towards other player races is rediculous. obv u know what they say about male auras, but what about lalafell players? catmoms? giraffe mains.

    have you experienced misstreatment or steriotyping over the race you play?
    have you ever had somebody blacklist you for it..
    whats your story if you have one. if you dont. whats your 2c on this issue. how should square deal with it

    my worst experience is being blacklisted by a girl in my static because she had a bad male aura experience and blisted all of us on sight

    The worst elezen get is just being called a giraffe, although its been nonexistent from my years of playing except by other elezen as a joke. Its not really that bad of a comment considering the other races like miqote have long necks as well, its just the most noticeable on elezen because they are meant to be tall and thin by model design.

    I think in order for it to count as racism, it has to be something you can't change with a fantasia. You chose to play an Au Ra and you can choose to play something else. You can't choose not to be black. Or Asian.

    Is it right? No. But lets not dilute the word racism any further than it already has been by extending it to the freaking character you play in a vidya game.

    Male Au Ra gets the lalafel treatment? Wow I must of been living under a rock. I had no idea. I thought they were pretty popular behind male miqote and male viera. I find them quite appealing myself so.

    Thank you. And I think you have done good with your character as well.

    Sorry to hear about your experience, although it was probably for the best if thats all it takes for a blacklisting. The only thing I even have black listed is bots and that is because their tends to be a lot of them over in limsa.

    Ironically I see more anti-Elezen stuff on here than ingame.

    Malera has an issue of being very attractive to sexual deviants based on first-hand and second-hand knowledge.
