Honestly, I’d be more afraid of the naked folks if I was a bad guy. They obviously are good at what they do if they can run around like that and not immediately die.
The ideal would be to let everyone have options. Wanna dress slutty? Cool, we got you regardless of your character’s physical sex or preferred gender. Wanna wear 7/10ths of a leopard tank? Right this way, sir, madam or other.
EDIT: I mean it. Very nice. Being a bisexual man in the early nineties royally sucked. I had to be closeted in two camps. Almost all of my straight acquaintances were homophobic (most people were to one degree or another) and my gay acquaintances gave me shit about either being a closeted gay man that didn’t want to accept his sexuality or being greedy (whatever the fuck that meant). I honestly wish I could be twenty again just so I could be able to live without all of that negativity.
(I'm a straight male) At times it might be easier to watch the male equivalent being around than the female one - at least the male equivalent wouldn't risk me getting aroused too often 😂 That can be stressful too!
Probably because attractive masculine attire is generally portrayed as either minimalist or sweat soaked dress shirt and tie. A little embellishment to a loin cloth like a thong strap or frills would just make it feminine. Masculine oddly shares a lot of overlap with utilitarian.
Generally this type of underwear (specifically high waisted and/or with thin stripes), high socks and long hair are seen as feminine. There’s nothing wrong with men being feminine. We don’t need to make things redefined as masculine for them to be ok for men. That’s my position. ¯_(ツ)_/¯
Take the gender connotation out of clothing period. Let men wear dresses, and it be manly if that's what they want. Let women wear full plate, and call it feminine if that's what they want.
I want more women in tuxedos and more men in gowns and as much variety in expression as we are capable of in mind!
I don’t think it needs to be masculine either. I want beauty and sex appeal to be seen as its own concept completely separate from dumb gendered norms.
