And of course, the case of Hilda, which again, is more classist than racist, I'd say.
Yeah, that's the quest I mentioned earlier that everyone cites. As you said, it could also be the fact it's homosexuality (or just the combination of a relationship that's both homosexual and cross-species being just "too much"), which is why I said it was ambiguous, on top of that fact is that all we know is that they came from their home to Camp Bronze Lake where they are apparently more accepted. There's no mention on whether their home is inside or outside of Eorzea.
Some people have mentioned Hilda as evidence, as well, but I'd also agree it's more to do with classism and the fact she was born of an affair out of wedlock.
