No no, you are just repeating yourself. Skirts can be modified in many creative ways. Hm, Mew's dress or Luka as an example? But the fact remains that there are a lot more Vocaloids with skirts than can be explained by random selection. Designers just like them and are influenced by popular Vocaloids (now you got me repeating myself lol) - it appeals to the male market in Japan.

I am not bashing Vocaloids for it, but the 'formular' does exist. Mostly in fandom though. The range of official female Vocaloids designs is alright. We have a few that defy the formular completely, which is nice. But 8 out of the 20 females released after Miku wear short skirts. Its quite a high ratio, but not so much as to bother most people. This isn't counting other parts of the Miku formular.

Lets just say: If someone outside the fandom were to look in at the range of designs, they would be able to conjure up a basic model female Vocaloid in their heads, and that Vocaloid would look a bit like Miku.

Comprendo?
