Give gender locked armor textures to the opposite gender

More transmogs!

Cool pants right?

Maybe you want them for your transmog set but they look like this on your character:

That's always a bummer, so i'm suggesting giving some of the gender locked texture via new items to give female characters currently male only pants and boots (or vice versa).

Why only pants and boots?

The current textures already work on any character regardless of gender as I can show with some renaming and .mpq modding.

Male Night Elf with as of now female only pant textures.

As I said, it will be nice if some of these gender locked textures were given to the opposite gender via new items, these items could give more flavour to some low level quest or be a random BoE drop, that way all players get more transmog options.

Why I don't suggest the same with chest armor?

Unfortunately due to painted on boob shadow most female only textures look really wonky on male player models and it would require a lot of effort to modify all of them.

Dude, yes. Maybe it can be an option with those transmog ribbons to where you can swap the gender texture of your armor.
It always bugged me that the female characters had more revealing options than the male characters.
The closest I've got to showing off skin with a male character was with the Quel'dorei chest piece and then some warden's woolies.

More player options when it comes to appearance is always a good thing.

It’s true that we should give all players more options for appearances. I would like the female versions of the gear pieces on male chars for the RP aspect.

Turtle team needs to do this. Being able to RP as a femboy tauren will be a dream come true.
