It reali depends on what type of style the armor can show on both female and male charecters. Say for fow armor for a ritualist. People may go for the male version and others may go for female. Its up to the palyer

I'm female, and I prefer the females over the males on most of the character types not only for the armor but also because of the dancing emotes. Male eles and dervs have the oddest dance animations, and they drive me crazy. I have 14 charries, all female except for 3 males--my Tyrian ranger (who has cute hair and buns) who's pretty much a mule, a Nightfall male warrior because I appreciate the lovely biceps, and a Nightfall male mesmer, because mesmer armor of either gender is just plain awesome. I have a female of every single class as well.

10 chars, 1 of each profession, all males

I like to play what I am in RL and don't see the point of cross dressing as a female char. As for the "curves" and looking at your char's behind excuse, why are you looking at your char's behind in the first place?

1 male char (first char)
8 female chars

After a months playing male char I relized i should look at something better while playing :P
MMORPG = Massive Men Online Role Playing Girl (charactors) xD

Male characters have more health.

I tend to play male characters in every game I play

Sorry if I'm being sexist but after hundreds of hours of gameplay, I want my character fully decked out in prestige armor to remind me of some amazing legendary hero rather than a female whose armor models only cover half of their bodies

I can't stand playing male professions. ANY of them, lol. I had one male ranger for a pretty long time, but I deleted him after I got bored. Mostly the girls just look a LOT better in their armor sets, and in general! I'd like my guys to be somewhere between waspy wispy casters and bulk hulk heroes, thanks.

22 females
0 males

I like my characters to look pretty ;3

crazybanshee · Mar 11, 2009, 05:08 AM // 05:08

I have 5 male characters and 5 female. Male chars are: mesmer, ranger, paragon, warrior, ritualist. Female chars are elementalist, monk, necromancer, dervish, and assassin. Make of that what you will (and I'm female irl, I just hate the way some female char's armor looks)

Nice find on the older thread cosyfiep.

I've merged the old thread with this one, so now everyone gets a pretty Poll, and an additional 17 pages of gender discrimination to read!

On top of what I said earlier I guess I'm just tired of playing as a male protagonist. It's the most tired and old thing there is in an adventure or RPG game. If for example the Metroid games featured some random dude instead of Samus it would of likely had less appeal. Considering it was one of the first games with a female protagonist.

There's really nothing wrong with people playing the opposite gender. There ARE certain lines that should not be crossed though, and I think these lines are pretty obvious.

I'm a male

All my PvE characters are male, sure the female characters look better but I don't want to be stuck cross-playing since obviously it's a permanent decision.

For PvP characters though I usually make them female, for purely aesthetic reasons.

Guy with male and female toons.

I'm a male, with 9 female characters. Why? Because they just look THAT good

NuclearSlug · Mar 12, 2009, 10:14 AM // 10:14

I'm a male with all female characters. Its a habit I got from my old Ultima Online days (I'm old) I've found that you typically get more help in-game as a female rather than playing as a male. Besides, it's easier on the eyes.

Same

, I just dont like to look at the back of a guy

faraaz · Mar 12, 2009, 10:50 AM // 10:50

I'm male with only female characters. IMO every single male character model and armor design is terribad and if I'm going to be dedicated hours to a particular character (my sin has ~2000 hours from a total of 4500 hours on my account in the last 14 months), I better had damn well ENJOY looking at it for hours and hours.

So no, I don't feel like a "13 year old pervert" to have female chars while being male IRL.

I'm female, and I agree with you on that. I get irritated if I'm stuck in some ugly-looking armour, so I always make sure I really want that armour set before buying it. For that reason, I'm never buying FOW. I'm not going to enjoy looking at that for hours and hours.
