Maybe, maybe not, but that's not really what you're arguing here. You're arguing girls love conventional beauty ... and that's patently false.
Take black women, for instance; to quote from a 2016 medical paper:
In other words, black women grow up in a society that tells them they need to look more conventionally beautiful (ie. white). Some do embrace that message, but many more deny it, instead striving to look unconventionally beautiful, in their own natural way.
Similarly here, Iksar women may not be conventionally beautiful ... but don't you think it's just a little bit racist to say they aren't beautiful at all ... simply because they look less different from you?
Ah, there it is, the new age lie that human beauty is a grey area so beauty can be whatever you want it to be. :rolleyes: The lie that humans have no set standards or have low standards. :rolleyes:
Celebrities say that kind of stuff all the time while they dress up as Marilyn Monroe. :D
I'm not arguing I'm stating facts: that a) all human females want to be beautiful and b) the iksar race is not female friendly so females are forced to play second rate necro's and monk's due to the fact that iksar have regen and female friendly races don't.
Then you come in claiming that the reason why girls don't find iksar beautiful is because "society" teaches girls into thinking that female iksars are ugly which is your way of calling women stupid. What you're claiming can't even be verified.
To a male iksar, female iksar would be beautiful but iksar don't play EQ it's humans who do and humans much prefer beautiful to ugly. I wouldn't marry an iksar female, would you bro? Iksar female or Marilyn Monroe as your wife dude? By your standards if you don't pick iksar then you're "racist". :p
A lie will never be the truth and ugly will never be beautiful.
Is the elephant man beautiful to you too? :p
Stick to shaman advice.

What makes you think you know what women like? Didn't your wife leave you?

If she did then all I have to do is flip the data to know the answer. :p
I could ask myself if girls prefer stockings and suspenders to scales and tails or go to Nek and Cabilis and compare the female population to get the answer.

Iksar are the only female woth decent make up options. They are most beautiful.

Also… How could there be a stereotype of certain people loving watermelon?I thought everyone loves watermelon?
Is this a poor hypothetical or am I missing a cultural touch point here? I’m not from these parts.

Came to read elf-nerds argue about the aesthetics of various elf-type toons. Wasn't expecting a woke twitter-cringe thread.

It's like creating an evil Paladin which is better than a Paladin.
you mean the dark side of the force?
