So the OP asks politely for equally skimpy armor for male characters, and some guys start talking about how the op is exagerating with the sexism/sexualization of female armor, while others talk about how wrongly women dress in real life and how that should affect how we want to dress our characters in a game.
And those very same people think that asking for simple things is easier for us because we are women. Really xDEveryone, I would like you to take note of the above statement, as it is a perfect example of what is known as ‘The Straw-man Fallacy’.
Everyone, I would like you to take note of the above statement, as it is a perfect example of what is known as ‘Ad Hominem Fallacy"
And the same goes for Leo G, sorry to wake you up from your lovely dream, but that’s what you have been doing
EDIT:
I can’t help but laugh at how there are two almost equally loud groups, one decrying the comparative lack of skimpy female armor, and another turned off by the apparent absurdity of female skimpy armor and/or the unfairness of it compared to male armor.
Just goes to show that there’s no pleasing everyone.
What I find equally absurd is how just having the option to cloth a female character in skimpy armor is labeled as sexualizing them and yet, what do a large portion of women wear casually, at work or at school? Most aren’t trying to wear loose jeans and a regular-lengthed short sleeve shirt.
Both of you are being unrespectful. The Greyhawk, you just described a problem with an easy solution, more skimpy armor for both genders, yet you aply your beloved “straw man fallacy” to turn things your way.
And LeoG…. nothing to say. What women wear is nothing of your business (any person naked to the bone still has a respectable opinion), and yet, if you think GW2 skimpy armor = real life women clothes, then you should stop playing videogames cause you can’t tell fantasy from reality. Try making real friends and going out, i,m serious, not mocking

OnTopic: My friend (a boy) sent me this because I,ve been complaining for ages (literally 5 years) because my male characters cant show their chest or underwear like females do. So I support this, make boys sexy, make them some chaps, or open (very open) jackets, short trousers, kilts that open when they run, more uninhibited stuff…
