I think largely the issue is that Miqo'te obviously have a pretty distinct culture from the rest of Eorzea, but there is very little canon information about what that culture is outside of basic family structure.
This is correct. I Just wanted people who are new, and possibly reading the thread that Nunhs are not pimps at all. They do not force any female to do as they wish. The structure of the soceity is all based off of favour. I get irritated because people cannot put aside their own personal cultural views to even accept the terms of FFXIV offical lore. So they slander it and insult those who do roleplay it as it was written.
yes - a lot is left in the dark so a lot of common courtesy head cannon needs to be involved but if we look at human socities especially those of the pacific islands we can find similar cultural structures. Its not an alien society - people need to stop treating it as something vile because it clearly isn't.
TLDR version:
Yo dawg, go take a Anthropology 101 paper! Human variety! cultural difference, Yo, peace G!
I wasn't attempting to slander the culture. I know these cultures exist outside of modern society, and I never said it was vile. Like I said, I made a joke about it as everyone else has been believing they were pimps all along. I thought it was funny. *Shrugs*
Either way, if you want to correct this idea going around you might want to sticky a thread and talk to Gilgamesh players, as I've seen nothing but jokes (at least I hope they are...) on that server since I started playing. Anyone new doesn't automatically know of this forum's existence, and when everyone starts acting like Miqo'tes are having orgies all day, they get the wrong impression and won't learn the truth until later, like now. And as far as I can tell, there are far more Balmung players going on here than Gilgamesh (a lot of people didn't know of the ball yesterday). Soooo....yeah...Lack of communication going on here.... :/
Anyways, it's past us. And thanks FreelanceWizard for more insight on the Nunhs. I enjoy my character so far, and I really want to develop her properly for RP. Sadly, I don't know what to do with her name since we can't change names yet, and at the same time I don't want to get rid of it. I'm not sure what to do....I was originally thinking that her name could be this way do to her parents combining different factors, like the Mi being a broad representation of both types of Miqo'te.
Edit: Had the wrong person listed. xD
