That's a very good point! However, I'm talking about in terms of accessibility to newer players!

doesn't matter, there's more female designs than males and lately people want male designs so people are creating male designs...but at the same time making female designs

Wisconsinite96 But those things don't affect the new players who don't have designs to begin with! I completely agree that there are more user-designed female designs, but when it comes to the default avatars, there is some very obvious gender-skew that shouldn't be purposely put it when building a website designed for every type of person.

Pokemaster Some you've labelled as "male" are more unisex.
The clothes you labelled "female" just support the skin with boobs. But your tshirt is unisex and things like bald stubble could be female too.
It's all about perspective tbh. :P

pokemaster doesn't matter about new players if they can't afford designs that are 1000ts

Yoshitomi I was going to make a unisex category but I didn't feel like counting. So I just counted the female ones and subtracted the total

Wisconsinite96 That's my point! They're stuck with predominantly male options.

Pokemaster You skimmed by my remark about how you judged "female clothes".
Because they support the boobs.
Which is a sexist point of view as the t-shirt you have, the 10-top, the shirt&tie, the turtle neck jumper AND the blazer can all be worn by females too.
YOU are the sexist. :P

Yoshitomi, No i responded to that. I said I was being lazy, not sexist
Sent by pokemaster,Aug 13, 2015
PokeMaster But by labelling designs which show off boobs as female and designs which don't as "not female", that is a sexist way of putting it. :P
I wear t-shirts, jumpers and tops like the 10 top irl. Not the bra or the beach top stuff out. XD
   
Once you consider the unisex designs, there are fewer male-oriented designs too. XD
