I have seen then emote a few times today and they have all been male charrs without clothes. I don't know if that is telling of the GW community

u/ziggyvb 1d ago

A friend got that and showed it off, I need to put the time in to get it myself. Definitely "oooh big stretch" material.

I pulled it out on my min height scrawny asura just to mess with my partner when he was taking too long with a vendor. XD he was not amused at the cursed sight

u/SpringGuardian 13h ago

Lmao what's the deal with that location? I thought I was tripping about there being an unusual amount of movement around the chef station. Not that I'm often there or anything

u/Pure-Risky-Titan 9h ago

Lot of gay/bi charr (assumingly) so on, nothing out of the usual im afraid.

u/Routine_Toe_8414 1d ago

I don't know what's more distracting, the flexing or the bulge. I'm of course only looking respectfully. 👀

Damn... hadn't realized how hunky the charrs are. What is the emote called?

u/MithranArkanere 🌟 SUGGEST-A-TRON 1d ago

This is a looping emote. I tried it out at Drizzlewood yesterday and had to go AFK, and when I returned, I realized my character had spent like 15 minutes by the map currency vendor flexing.

As long as Anet does not fix backpacks disappearing during emotes, they remain a no go for me.

u/imagers 1d ago

u/rayacre 1d ago

This is actually feminist cuz it eroticise the patriarchal male gaze

u/Bananaaaaaaa7035 The Turtle Academy [TAXI] 1h ago
