Interestingly enough, a good chunk of female characters in the FFXIV RP community are straight. It's legitimately difficult to find a decent date on any given day. Not even joking; it's truly an anomaly of modern roleplay.
Really? I don't have that experience at all. I just find that between my two characters (A Gay Miqo'te and a Bisexual Elezen) the way relationships happen is a lot differently.
It's very straightforward with Male/Male relationships, both sides know what they want and just say it.
With the female ones it has been decidedly different, relationships are not directly sought, people just meet, and become friends, and things grow from there. It's actually a very interesting dynamic, and meshed with my own personal experiences out of game. I assure you there are plenty of female characters out there who are not against such things, its just much more deeply buried than the gay/hetero stuff splattered all over the quicksand (sometimes literally, the janitors there really earn their pay)
