Cooking is more of a female type job. What's wrong with showing that males are superior to females (~~)

Eh?

You can find sexism, racism, etc in anything if you try hard enough.

If upon rolling a female character the only class available to you was 'Housewife' then that would be sexist...
If you got paid less than a Male character when selling your items to a vendor just because you were female then that would be sexist...

...what you posted however isn't.

Not at all, that's a female job. I have a girlfriend and she's fine with doing the lady work, while I do the male work.
Edit: I just turned into a Daeva!

90% of the toons I've seen are female. At least I can imagine I'm a man in a vast vast sea of women. Though that's probably not the case at all, not even a little bit.

Male brains are acutually bigger than female brains, but females have a more developed limbic system (used to spot and trigger emotions) so they can spot emotions better, but get depressed faster too, while it doesn't affect men so much.

So when a female wants to make food and take care of children, it's actually pretty normal, unlike what all the feminists claim.

Why do you guys call your character a toon? Don't even bring the Wow slang to AION ONLINE...

Pretty rediculous, when you say this would be sexistic.

Female Characters dont get a passive cooking bonus for being female and dont have any disadvantage at Handicrafting or landing backwards. Means its up to the players what they do with the crafting, so blame them.

And I bet at least 4 of those female chars are played by male players

Oh wow, that's why it's sexist.

That word's all over the place. In the end what does it matter how I refer to my digitised representation of a humanoid character in a virtual world as long as the people I'm speaking to comprehend it's meaning?

The size dimensions (width, length, etc.) of an organism's brain are not significant factors in intelligence. Believing that brain size correlates with intelligence is, well, 3rd-grade logic at best.
