RE: How Does Your Character Treat the Sexes? - WanderingWordsmith - 08-18-2014
When it comes to casual conversations, I'd say Averill is fairly even with the sexes. He's had good advice from men and women of every creed and colour during his time on the road, so he's trained himself out of the expectations he had as a teenager.Â
That said, there's still a flash or two of his old attitudes - whilst he would be equally surprised, I'd severely doubt that he would be equally concerned about, say, a male Miqo'te bursting into the Quicksand, tripping, and catapulting themselves into both his table and his face. I suppose context is everything with this one.

Anelia treats both genders equally, and respects them without any part of discrimination. As a matter of fact, she believes that a woman can be strong too if she is determined. She encourages a lot of women who are into combats or those who are determined to become soldiers. However, she is very against in terms of shameless behaviors (both genders).
Mizuho's perspective is different. Her entire family is old Asian-style oriented family that once a woman finds a man, is to submit to become a house wife. Should the husband is to perish, is to hold up to be responsible to lead the family tribe or find another mate for "political marriage". She wishes for her family and her clan's well being, but in the end - she realizes that she is nothing more than just a female figure to be part of political affairs.

Leanne treats everything and everyone equally, of course changing her approach from person to person a tiny bit so their conversation can be always enjoyable. Be female, male, miqo'te, roegadyn, lalafell, she will be respectful and friendly to all.

Kellach
He's been on a journey of constant self-discovery in Eorzea ever since he stepped off the boat, and it's hard for him to consider the differences in genders mostly because he hadn't had much contact with women outside of his farming village. Sure, the women handled the cooking, but if you've ever lifted a pot of soup for a village potluck of more than a 100 people you know women are strong. Even when it came to protection, he's pretty sure his mother would ask for his axe so she could protect him.
People keep calling him girly and effeminate, so that makes things even more confusing 'cause he's obviously a guy.
In short, he's still way too confused by feelings to even take gender into account, and will sit on your lap no matter what your gender is.

Verad unabashedly prefers selling his wares to women. Experience has shown him that they are more likely to engage, either by asking about his products or by trying to figure out what he's doing. They're also much more likely to actually buy something, whether that be out of interest or pity.
Men, on the other hand, have shown that they are much more willing to just brush him off or threaten to hurt him if he presses too hard. With a few exceptions, they have proven unreliable customers. If presented with two customers of differing genders and all other things being equal, Verad will pitch to the woman first.
In other matters, Verad sees the sexes as being equal, but in matters of giving him money, he has his clear preferences.
