I don't know how you define 'mainstream common', but most women I know don't prance around like Victoria Secret models, which is what the current crop of female-only revealing clothes looks like.

Since I'm pretty sure that's not "mainstream common", the rest of your argument is specious.

Uhm. I'm pretty sure I did. My constructive ideas was 'if you're going to make more scantily clad female outfits, then start putting thought into doing the same for male toons'.

I also later said that I don't like having them at all, so you could also infer that another constructive idea would be to stop rolling out new ones every CM update.

TLDR; I completely agree with you that there should be more options for males, but stop being ridiculous and asking for male lingerie.
And there we have it, calling people 'ridiculous' as a means to devalue their viewpoints. I appreciate the respectful treatment of my opinions.

Anyone know why I got 1050 cartel points as a "Customer Service Grant"?
I've gotten that amount as a refund for the bank slot item I purchased from the GTN that didn't work. I have no idea if you had anything similar.

Bioware, you're pissing off a large number of your female fans with this blatant sexism. If you're going to keep rolling out half-naked female-only outfits, please start adding an equivalent number of scantily clad male outfits. Where are the slave boy outfits? The exotic dancer skivvies? The Silken Boxer Loungewear?

If you don't think they won't be purchased...well, you're wrong.

Yep, I've been looking for a G-String thong to put on my Type-3 body type Assassin Tank to go along with my Covert Energy Armor top. Gotta give all the girls something to look at.

It would be great if we could get Covert Energy equipment set, thus making your character only wear their boxers. I would love to see my Jugg fighting naked looking lol.

You're not hanging around in the right places.

Honestly IMO this "mainstream common" he's referring to = television and movies more so than irl. He's also alluding to the fact that in general women where more revealing clothing then men in current western culture, video games over exaggerate that to an extreme degree. Why do they do this? Because statically single men are by far the largest demographic for games and sex sells. I'm not saying it's right, but it's the truth. Conversely if a ton of the male outfit started looking overly skimpy and sexual a lot of guys would consider it (not being offensive just stating facts) 'gay' and would not enjoy playing in this 'sausage fest'.

There is too much sexism in video games, but until it stop selling I don't think it's likely to change. Also I do think the amount of 'slave girl' outfits are over the top, every single pack doesn't need one. (For the record not a single one of my toons, even companions, are wearing a slave girl type article, though I do own a few and have debated it).

They're annoying some male fans as well.

And if nothing else, it would be nice with some "elegant" or casual outfits that don't show off as much skin as possible for the female characters. I know the Social vendors have a few, but it's worth adding more through the Cartel Market.

Yet, you actually used a mainstream reference to point out how you think I'm wrong. Pray tell, what mainstream reference do you have for male-lingerie as you're asking for?

IOW, "I didn't read because I don't like opinions that aren't aligned with mine."

That's called "suggesting someone else do the constructive thinking."

I wish they would too.

Sorry, male-lingerie is a perfectly not-ridiculous suggestion for this game.

Are those gloves you are wearing Adaptive or Light, Heavy, etc? And what are they?

Sorry for the off topic.
