I appreciate mods like this because they at least provide some form of proof that the Nexus isn't just filled to the brim with horny mofos. I never really do understand people who turn their games into sex games
Still see no difference, as most to all do have them. could not stand my females having that dumb walk, but to each their i guess, just wanted to clarify.
Female actors that use male animations in Skyrim do so because of an actor trait.
Some actors are traited to use opposite-gender animations. See this page on the Creation Kit wiki: http://www.creationkit.com/index.php?title=Traits_Tab
This mod affects female actors ( such as the player ) that DO NOT use the opposite gender-animations and replaces the regular female walking animations with the male walking animations.
In the end it delivers a similar result to the opposite-gender animation trait but in a very different context.
I have the mod working after using a guide to port it to SE. The feminine idle remains the same, BUT AT LEAST UTHGERD ISN'T TRYING TO BE A FAIRY PRINCESS ANYMORE! HUZZAH!
So... this mod makes females walk in the weirdest way ever... no women (nor men actually) walk like that in real life... basically you made that incredibly awkward Bethesda walk animation for female too... wtf is this? WHY? I'm searching for the exact opposite, beacuse i hate to see Lydia or Jordis walk, run and jump like gorillas... i'm not saying that i'd like an high heels swaying hips model walk, but at least something normal... why the heck would you walk like that, with wide arms and legs like you crapped your pants? I don't understand... do you have eyes? I'm simply amazed that such a mod even exist...
Oh my goodness, I've been trying to look for a realistic female walking animation replacer for the longest time and none of them felt right to me. This is the one. Thank you so much!
It's sad that you have to ask. No, it's not to make macho-females, it's to humanize them. Like many of the comments here have already stated, women don't have some special snowflake, hip thrusting walk that we parade around. We walk, just like anybody else and it's nice to have that option finally through this mod.
This mod is one tiny bit of antivenom to the vast majority of awful mods on here that just make all women in the game look like creepy sex dools/Bayonetta clones.
Women do walk differently. The skeletal structure is not the same between genders. I used to work in a semiconductor fabrication cleanroom where everyone is covered head to toe in the same type of smock. If someone was walking away from me, it was easy to tell if the walker was male or female, even when the smock was oversized. But we all walk differently, so given time, not only could I tell if the walker was male or female, but I would be able to tell which coworker the walker was.
Yes, women do walk a little differently. We have wider hips, and our center of gravity is lower than men's. However - the women in Skyrim ALL walk like they're runway models, minus orcs (racist implications there tbh, considering the origins of orcs but w/e) and a few npcs... even in a full suit of heavy armor. It's stupid. Someone higher up mentioned that Skyrim is a harsh, unforgiving land - I highly doubt seasoned warriors who run around with greatswords and in full suits of metal armor are going to saunter around a cold place filled with dragons, bandits, witches, necromancers, giant spiders, etc., like they're showing off the latest haute couture fashions.
And it's fine if you don't understand or want a mod like this, but quick question: why... this comment?
You could have just read the rest of these comments to understand why people get this mod. You really didn't need to ask a question you probably already knew the answer to.
Bit late to the party here, but just want to say, as a red-blooded male, thank you for this mod. I know it may feel and seem like only other women appreciate this simple but much-needed tweak to the game, but ignore the mouth-breathers who pass judgement on what's "feminine" or not. They couldn't last 5 minutes on a walk around the park, let alone a mountain hike - and as a guy who lifts and has seen women who lift, hike, and engage in plenty of physical exercise, I thank you again for this mod. Really should've looked harder when I first got this game.

(I'm gonna see if this works in SE and update this comment with my findings)
is it to make the character more masculine? just wondering since it confused me a little
