    Hi,

    Currently there are a lot of items that contain gender restrictions within the Cashop. I was hoping we could see some of these restrictions lifted. There are some guys who like to wear feminine things, and some women who like to wear boyish things on their characters. Considering MapleLegends has removed the wedding limitations regarding gender, this change is applicable.

    At the very least, have all donor equips be wearable by any gender. This will encourage donations while also giving crossdressing players greater options in their wardrobe instead of being tied down to a few selections of gender-sided universal items.

    We already have massive amounts of guys playing female characters, why not help reduce this by making a more honest option? Hence letting male characters crossdress as female characters.. that way players can know their true gender without the need to inform everyone you're a male playing a female.

    The face/hair style options are decent already, but perhaps making some genderless options in server events for face/hair styles is a good idea. I'm sure it's been done in the past, but I'm just ensuring the idea for this Summer event coming up.

    It's important to note that I'm not asking for all items/styles to be available. It makes perfect sense to have exclusives for each gender. But the donor shop should be an exception at the very least, along with events. MapleLegends can better communicate that they are accepting of all players this way, and bring in more donations at the same time.

    I'd donate to wear several female items personally, let me know your thoughts.

    Thanks

    I like this idea. There are a lot of male-only clothing items I really like, and the non-dress options for female clothing is limited (and you often have to buy two pieces which costs more)

    I really agree with you, but I will help Kimmy here by informing you that it's been asked before (by me, incidentally, as well as a few others) and the answer is that it's quite difficult to impossible to remove gender restrictions from existing items, but they try to keep new/requests for cash items gender neutral.

    I think if there's some item you really want to wear that is of another gender you can try to specifically request it, or request they add a new item with the same avatar but no gender... try posting in 'ask for new cash items' thread.
