Totally agree. Even the combatish boots have heels.
I wonder if female Dust soldiers would have heels... are there female Dust soldiers? |

One last thing: If WIS was so important for the game (I'm ignoring gender here) why did CCP all but stop development on it?
That one is easy.
They spent 3 years on it and all we got was one room and the DOOR!
That plus the fearless article led to massive rage, and so CCP panicked and dropped it for a later date.
Hopefully when they pick it back up again they will give us actual content and will not remove other content. |

See I can make random statements without proof too. |

I know you can, but I don't. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/health/7225828.stmhttp://www.medicina.univr.it/fol/main?ent=persona&id=3132As what comes to the topic, I agree with the OP, no matter how bonkers she appears, and no matter how acutely irrelevant a detail like this is in the context of the current non-existent avatar gameplay.
Thank you for the proof.
Nice read too. |

We are gracefully accepting as commonplace that we are immortal pilots among the stars themselves, controlling spacecraft able to be countered only by others like us.
Why would anyone think high heels were uncomfortable...?
Perhaps they DO resemble the shoes worn by the primitives of ancient Earth. I am sure many things have an appearance that suggests inspiration from before the dawn of our history in New Eden.
FACT: High heels are perfectly comfortable, as are all footwear worn by pilots for our publicity images.
If you want discomfort, wake up in a med-clone on the wrong side of the galaxy from your assets.
And as for being sexist, we do not live in those caves either. Preposterous idea.
Those shoes represent the dominance of women over sexuality itself, boasting to all others that they have both the genetic enhancements as well as the divine evolution to spin men's minds in helpless circles.
Just by wearing shoes.
Fine. By all means, please do exorcise your right to diminish yourself in the eyes of your peers, and would be admirers...
Take them off.
This made me  .
In a good way.
If only heels were painless now... |

No. I did not say it was lacking importance to you. You are free to care about anything, regardless of it's significance. But before you expect ANY of us to share your view, you do need to convince us. I would hardly expect devs to be easier to sway than your fellow players. For the reasons I stated before, you have not made your case to me. Considering the plain nature of the logic here, I don't see or expect anyone else to seriously agree with you either. It put's off new female players
Not really.
A little annoying, but so is (or are...) the Prequel Trilogy. I still watched them... and enjoyed bits and pieces. |

Not that huge. I think one of my sandals has a higher heel... |

Also FYI , intent has nothing to do with whether it is misogynistic or not.
Yes it does. Intent is the entire definition of the term.
Misogyny is an active state of mind. It requires the intended hatred, otherwise it is not misogynistic.
You can't accidentally hate women.
Just like racism must be intentional, so must sexism.
I still would like some non heeled shoes, just for some variety. But, you're taking it too far. There is nothing wrong about how it is now... just lacking variety. |

If you step on my foot it hurts me regardless of your intent. If someone stood on your foot and you started wailing about how you didn't mean to step on it so how dare they feel pain....
Hatred is an active and intentional thing.
Misogyny cannot be done without intending to.
Just like racism cannot be unintentional, as it requires the person to have a hatred/dislike of the other race. |

Like male Intaki hair. Transluscent and lace veils. Molded ornamental collars (like I used to have  ) . . .
I'm in full agreement with this. We lost a lot of the culture of EVE with the much more reserved styles with Incarna. |

The problem is that realistic collision detection is exponentially complex, with the exponent roughly corresponding to the number of different heights that the engine has to take into account. This is why, at present, all capsuleers are the exact same height, about 5'8"--men in flats, women in heels. Give women the option to drop to 5'5" or so in flats, and you've just made it harder. Making flats the default shoe for women is even more work, because all the models are designed to be 5'8" in heels. CCP would have to find some way to add a few inches of height to every female toon without making any of them look absurd. Not to mention that they'd have to have two default female poses, since heels change the way that you stand and walk.
I support the feature. Just be aware that implementing it has complications, and CCP will have to engineer around them. It's not as simple as adding flats to the character customization options. Or they could... You know... Maybe make players with different sizes with a height slider bar like some many other 3rd rate MMOs do.
Not possible yet with the animation engine (or something like that). |

I think all MRAs and feminists should be dragged out and... um... nicely brainwashed (not my original thought, I'll leave that up to your vivid imaginations).
They are both what is wrong with this world in the inequalities of the sexes.
As a woman, the only misogyny in this thread is from the guy who may have been joking, and the OP (in the form of making us women look like morons).
I'm sick of the OP claiming misogyny where none exists. It downplays the seriousness of such behavior, and the danger it poses to civilized society.
At this time I woudl like to bring out that the OP may be a pedophile. It doesn't matter that they aren't, it does not matter that they do not fit the sensible definitions of the term. They simply are.
OP, that is what you have been doing. Its terrible, and degrades women more than strip clubs. |

Good find.
Incidentally, I hate my browser. |
