How does that have anything to do with wanting to prevent negative stereotypes? And you still didnā€™t answer my question; how does the way another man dress, force feminization on you?

Half elf customization would be great.

If you donā€™t want to play the fair skinned, blonde haired raceā€¦ donā€™t play it?

I have Dark Red Hair tho.

Iā€™ve always liked the jewelry what I donā€™t like is that itā€™s being added as the main addition as opposed to a second visual theme, in Dark Ranger stuff. More light visuals for our light themes, and tattoos.

Iā€™m also gay and yeah I would enjoy the jewelry on my male characters and I donā€™t think that should be taken away or put down, my only contention with it is itā€™s very superfluous to actual other ideas / things for BEs, from Farstrider tattoos to box art runic tattoos.

I also reeaaaaallly wanted this on humans. Iā€™m heartbroken to see that itā€™s probably never going to be a thing :pensive:

Are you aware that calling it a stereotype invalidated people who actually represent themselves in that way? Do you not see how calling them a negative stereotype is hateful?

I actually have tanned skin on my Belf, so itā€™s not really fair skinned.

Case in point, Mr. T

Yeah as a gay guy who was excited to make a male Belf wearing jewelry itā€™s kind of gross to see someone calling it ā€œdisgustingā€ and ā€œforced feminizationā€, especially when said person claims to be a member of the LGBTQ community.

Maybe the problem is their outdated and stereotypical/sexist beliefs instead of Blizzardā€™s customization options.

That was more to do with his personality than jewelry.

Why is it problematic? How does representing a real demographic harmful to you if you have the option to not partake? How does the way another person dress/look have anything to do with you? Itā€™s no different then gender purists telling you that you arenā€™t really a man because, what will the children think?

This kinda implies to me that you think the LGBTQ community is one big hive mind that canā€™t have differing opinions.

Itā€™s fair enough. :face_with_hand_over_mouth:

Itā€™s actually gross that a member of the LGBT community is telling another group of the same community that theyā€™re a negative stereotype.

But you are, considering you brought up the fact that youā€™re trans, and that it personally offends you.

Also, claiming scars and tattoos are ā€œmanlyā€ is rather sexist and stereotypical.

There are just as many female warriors as males ones in Azeroth, and they are just as likely to get battle scars and tattoos as males are. There are even cultures in Azeroth such as the Night Elven people where the women make up the bulk of the military/fighting force.

When his opinion is harmful to the LGBTQ community and perpetuating societal stereotypes that cause real hatred and violence towards memebrs of the LGBTQ community, then I donā€™t care.

You realize in real life ā€œfeminineā€ men and ā€œmasculineā€ women and trans people get murdered or are the victim of violence and hate speed at a higher rate than ā€œnormalā€ people, right? Because they donā€™t fall in line with what society as put in place as ā€œacceptable gender normsā€. His rhetoric only enforces that.

ā€œYouā€™re not tolerant of my intolerance!ā€ is bs
