I was thinking about why FFXI would develope a job class for only one sex. Two part question: Do you think there could be some crazy fool who would/could sue SE because his male character can't master every job class (Discrimination)? Second, do you think SE is targetting the NEW video game customer, women? Tina Turner...

I do not think its for one sex only.
they did not even say anything about dancer being female only class.
They only showing you AF in female because they might look nicer. If you didn't notice All AF have male and female version.
Corsair's af is the most noticable.
When corsair and bluemage released, they only show Male Bluemage pictures... XD.  -add later- | | ::Quote Selected:: | | 10-16-2007, 01:49 PM | #4 (permalink) | | Finally Back From Lunch Join Date: May 2007 Location: Michigan Posts: 596 Style: Dark - Version 5 My Mood: Thanks: 89 Thanked 31x in 25 Posts Gil: 2,181 Bank: 30,362 Total Gil: 32,543 Donate | Re: Dancer for Money/Girls?

Is this topic really necessary? It has been pointlessly speculated several times this is a female-only class, but common sense says otherwise. Male Dancer has happened in FFV before.
I don't really get the aversion to the idea of there being a male dancer. | | ::Quote Selected:: | | 10-16-2007, 02:29 PM | #7 (permalink) | | RANK 5 IS BULLSHIT!

2- There's no discrimination involved. Male and female characters obviously have different armor sets, not to mention weddings, and the fact that there's no reason a male can't play a female character. Which is still better than some Chinese MMO.
3- SE is obviously going after the gay market. | | ::Quote Selected:: | | The following user says "Thank You" to Feba for above post: | | | 10-16-2007, 02:40 PM | #8 (permalink) | | Junior Member Join Date: Sep 2007 Posts: 2 Style: Light - Version 6 Thanks: 0 Thanked 0x in 0 Posts Gil: 813 Bank: 0 Total Gil: 813 Donate | Re: Dancer for Money/Girls? 1. As long as dancers in this game are more useful than in Star Wars Galaxies I'll be happy no matter who can play it.
2. I'd love to see a Galka dancing around.
3. Women aren't new to gaming. I doubt women will be all, "omg look at the pretty pretty dancers!!!1!! All of a sudden I feel like gaming with the boys!"
4. Tell me if you see any women pulling #3 so I can smack them (and show them the pretty pretty ninjas). | | ::Quote Selected:: | | 10-16-2007, 03:08 PM | #9 (permalink) | | Junior Member Join Date: Mar 2007 Posts: 404 Style: Light - Version 6 Thanks: 13 Thanked 52x in 36 Posts Gil: 764 Bank: 57,174 Total Gil: 57,938 Donate | Re: Dancer for Money/Girls?

I say so therefore it is the truth.
I don't think it will happen Evion, you see male humes dancing on the stage, they dance there, they probably dance in battle too. | Quote: | | 3- SE is obviously going after the gay market. | I'm sorry but if anything makes this thread more stupid is that one line right there. If dancing is supposed to be gay now where you live, I totally understand why you don't like the outdoors.
I hope showering never gets labeled as gay. | | ::Quote Selected:: | | 10-16-2007, 04:06 PM | #11 (permalink) | | Veteran Member Brain of Knowledge Join Date: Oct 2003 Posts: 1,545 Style: Dark - Version 5 My Mood: Thanks: 5 Thanked 85x in 23 Posts Gil: 45,345 Bank: 0 Total Gil: 45,345 Donate | Re: Dancer for Money/Girls?

The male Dancer AF, and there WILL be male Dancer AF, will more then likely be as frilly as the female one. The female one isn't even that skimpy looking, it seems to be based more on 'flamenco' type dancing, with a spanish flair, moreso then anything else. And you know what they say, it takes two to tango.

Not a stupid topic. Stop saying that. It is derogatory and not very nice.
If you don't like it, go post somewhere else. Half the replies here are worthy of deletion and I think that wouldnt be the case if people spent their time posting quality over quantity.
Yeah do as I say, not as I do. | | ::Quote Selected:: | | 10-16-2007, 05:26 PM | #15 (permalink) | | K Seal Bandit!

Ok then, fair enough.
I'll call it like I see it: this is a pointless thread. Why would SE introduce gender-specific jobs now in a game where gender has no function other than pure aesthetics?
If they're gonna do that, might as well go the whole 9 yards and intro race-specific jobs as well while they're at it.
