How come.....

...that 90% of the leaders in this game are female? Thiefes Guild, Dark Brotherhood, all the Pirates, Fighters Guild, Aldmeri Dominion and those are the only ones i have encountered. Is this real or is the Aldmeri Dominion just the most *** alliance?

    I think not 90% but a correct proportion of males and females, because this game is made by following the way of political correctness.

    I think its for the most part a balance, not 90%.

    I certainly don't think it's 90 percent.

    It's certainly not inconceivable however that the Thieves Guild and Dark Brotherhood have woman leaders. Look at Astrid in Skyrim as an example.

    Well let's see. Only the main factions because I don't have the time and patience to make a comprehensive list of the dozens of organizations in this game. A little spoilery, so be warned.

    AD: female
    DC: male
    EP: male
    Fighters Guild: female succeeded by male
    Mages Guild: both. Formally Vanus, but Valaste's a local sort of-leader we interact with.
    Thieves Guild: female (I'm not sure if I should count Nicolas, he's a very recent leader and still an important part of the questline)
    Dark Brotherhood: female/both. The matron of the sanctuary is female, but the Speaker is male.
    Undaunted: no formal leader, local groups are mixed

    6 males to 5 females so far, but it depends on how you count it. Either way the numbers will be about equal. Moving on to the leaders of each nation.

    Bretons: multiple kingdoms
    Redguards: male
    (Wrothgar) Orcs: male succeeded by male
    Dunmer: the Tribunal's joint rule: one female, one male, one intersex
    Nords: male
    Argonians: the Hist? We could count Vicecanon Heita-Meen, I suppose.
    Altmer: female
    Bosmer: male king, joint spiritual rule: male and female
    Khajiit: male succeeded by female

    8 males to 5 females (including Heita-Meen)

    - High Rock is not one nation of Bretons, but a variety of Kingdoms and City States. Therefore, it has multiple leaders: King of Daggerfall, Duke of Camlorn, Baron of Northpoint, Queen of Evermore,... It's only due to the Covenant being formed that it has a High King: Emeric.
    - Bosmer have a king, currently King Camoran. But the Bosmer in Greenshade obey only the Winderking/Wilderqueen. Then there's the Silvenar, who represents the Spirit of the Bosmer and can be either male of female iirc. The Green Lady is the otherside, representing the ferocity of the Bosmer

    I was just about to add King Camoran. :P Yeah, a lot of the races don't form one unified country at this point, so it's hard to pick one leader. We often have spiritual leaders at best - I'd count those, but you're right that it doesn't work for Bretons. I might check the ones that appear in ESO later. As for Dunmer Great Houses, do we know any grandmasters other than Indoril and Dres?

    I'm not sure if the Wilderking/queen's gender even matters and besides, it's 1:1 again, so it doesn't change anything.

    Oh, it is not 90%.

    Otherwise, it's simple really. Like immigrants, women get the job done.

    There is no imbalance though, at least none that the OP has presented evidence for.

    What imbalance?

    A conservative estimate puts the player-citizen population of Tamriel at about 70% female. Just go to the bank and see.

    I agree I see no imbalance I thoroughly enjoy the characters and the story. I'm just pointing out the double standard.

    I'm not saying there is but obviously the OP thinks so. My point is the double standard! Instead of insulting the OP and calling him or her a misogynist how about we respectfully correct the OP.

    Yes, the OP used the word on him- or herself.

    This was obvious after the first sentence. The worst thing is that now I feel compelled to run through the game again and make a list of every leader I encounter just to satisfy my curiosity. As if I needed more ways to be unproductive today. :(

    You guys obviousely didn*t read my post. I said that I personally encountered 90% female leaders. Idk about the whole game.
    I just noticed it somehow and found it a bit odd. And btw why is the word c-u-c-k-e-d cencored?

    It is well known that women make the best leaders. Every man that has a successful marriage understands this perfectly well.
