I think Rhostel is right, it really sounds to me like the poster had a bad experience in other games and doesn't want one here for playing a "pretty" character.
Though if we get down to the baseline of it, all the characters in FFXIV are pretty. It's nearly impossible to not make a super glossy, super stylized, super pretty something. Roegadyn and Roega-dame's are still quite pretty in the visual sense. They still have glossy hair, perfect skin, an ample and perky rack, and 6 pack abs. Highlander male's look less barbarian and more "cover of a romance novel" buff. It's really all in how we interpret our own characters - be it rugged, sexy, cute, battleworn, or just average.
