Serious post: I'd like to see more gender equality. I get clothing women more in fantasy and games is appropriate but even then that tactic still exposes sexism considering the opposite is available in regards to men. Oh, women in skimpy chainmail armor is sexist when the men are in full plate? Well, you don't have to put women in full plate. You can put men in skimpy chainmail and show off them abs and tight glutes. Eye-candy to gay men and women, right? The fact that 99% of the time the move is to de-sexualize the women and not more heavily sexualize the men to match the energy of the women is pretty revealing of where we are at on the issue as a society. It exposes the puritanical prudishness and homophobia of our culture.

Yes please, I’m straight but I love having the option of skimpy clothing on male characters, it bothers me when it’s just on female presenting characters
