I dunno, I've made a lot of good-looking male avatars in my time.
But you do have a point. Of course Gaia's going to try to cater more to the gender that makes up 75% of their userbase.
Of course, I wish there was more good-looking armor (the new RIG totally delivered, though, so I'm happy. The only one that kind of sucked is the La Dragonne. A blue tower shield would have been nice, instead of the thing we got that's scarcely bigger than a buckler.)
