It's great... but ANet is not the only playing with us today.
Thank you GWG for your creativity in the thread titles as well.

All my characters look worse (ESPECIALLY MY WARRIOR!).
Still, it's a great conversation piece in LA.

I noticed this, I was like WTF?
It's almost as amusing as the new forum titles here.

nirhan shadowmauler
me and my buddy had a good laugh. he has a female warrior i have a male. we came into LA. hey your warrior looks just like my warrior! apparently our two warriors skins were already sexual opposites of each other. quite hilarious.

This is awesome. I can't believe how so many people lack a sense of humor.
They went all out with this, it's funny as hell.

my Necro looks the best out of all my toons. It almost makes me wanna make a male Necro now. 
I love the way my Scar Pattern armor looks on...the guy Vala.

Shing Jea is where people change gender in Cantha, and if you think about it, makes sense, since all canthan events happen in Shing Jea and not Kaieng.
Lubek
Damn, i like original appearance of my chars, but when i look at their female versions, they are so cute i wish i could keep those changes, especially my main char.

ok, my paint skills are lame at best....but I put together a few sets of my kids....most of them are females, however; today they are males...2 exceptions. Yuki my tattooed monk and Seishin my tan armored rit.---they are females today!
Yuki looks better as a female, wish I could keep it (and they didnt make him a bun head either!).....Mamiko is not sure of her male half and his bald head (I have a third monk as well and the male version is buttttt uhh-gly)
now my eles.....Mei is in the vabian....while one of my mules is in the white cathan (I believe)....Mei looks good as a guy and I love the male armors for eles in the last 2 chapters!.
My rits.....Seishin looks horrible in his female counterpart (though I like the braids), while Gs's male counterpart wonders how to explain hot pink and a skirt!
My mesmers dont like their male conterparts at all.....though it was fun to see all the armors in the male versions.....
and then my necro Shinin (in the gold) and Fuyu (green) ....Shin has some funky hair as a guy!
I do have a few other characters, but they are darker skined and turn out horrible in screenshots and paint....(another mesmer, another ele, a ranger, a paragon and the other female monk).....

I wana keep mine , she's cute.. LOL (Ok so I'm bored looking at my male warrior) :P
Curse You
It's payback time for female warriors. Now they have the hump emote, Muhahahaha!
Superdarth
Yeah..i was like "WHAT THE?!" when i saw a female on my screen..i realy didnt feel comfortable with a female char when im male, but after the wth came the "LOL!", nice joke Anet!
One thing bothers me though: In Shing Jea there was some guy (girl char ofc) walking to all the females and asking if they would strip for him.
Didnt that dude know it was basicly shemale day?

Gaile needs to do a chat while we are like this.

Wow... there's a lot of gender insecure people out there, which puts me in a delicate place... I now don't know which is funnier, the "event" itself, or the "outrage" :giggle: that seems to be emerging from people.
It's a joke, a clever one at that, and it's not permanent. Go to another town if you're so bent out of shape. It's not like we're going to miss your chat spam recruiting for your guild or trying to sell your purple off-hand of humourlessness.
(Directed at no one specifically.)

if someone can't take a joke and live with it and enjoy the change while it lasts, then they honestly don't know how to live. and thats a fact, whether you can agree with it or not, its a welcomed change on a day such as APRIL FOOLS DAY... maybe its just for the fools to get pissed off?
Lynxius
Fun April fool!

After:
Hot? Yes most definitly.
