Why do people like male monks? Hasn't anybody seen Ugly Gay Monk? (i'd post a link but search is ALWAYS disabled.)

Anyway, female characters look better and were designed to appeal to adolescent+ males. Everyone's seen a female ele lingerie dancing party somewhere in Tyria!

I detest the male warrior look - especially if they have the damned FoW helm! (and are w/mo O_O)

I wonder if the want to play a female character stems from some other deeper part of the persons psyche. Like if they arent playing them for their armor or style. After a few minutes, your character is no longer special, in the way that a pretty girl walking by is special. Your character becomes the norm, so their look matters very little for your "eye candy" unless they are grotesquely ugly. This means that there has to be some greater reason that people choose to play females prodominately, when so many other factors suggest the usage of male characters. For example, more often than not, the male is personified as the hero, and in human evolution it plays the roll of the protector and gatherer, etc, while the female plays the roll of the mother and nurturer. Perhaps some sort of reverse freudian philosophy? That would give me a kick.

That is basically the reason why a bunch of guys play female characters. I'm a guy and i got bored of looking at my half naked monk in tats so i made a female ranger and bought the revealing 15k druids for her. the only class i wouldnt consider being female is a necro. male necros imo look more evil and have the best hair styles in the game. mohawks and devil locks FTW!!!

it's simple really...

Most Guys don't want to stare at a guy's butt all day, it much more pleasant experaince to stare at a more pleasing shape.

This is the "Lara Croft" effect.

All my characters are male,I don't see a reason for a male to play a female.

Lol,just remembered one of my guildies at this party we had in LA.She kept calling the female Rangers there sluts for taking off their armor and dancing.She told them to put their armor back on.

i have two males and two females char ..just to balance things out,i think i created male chars because i rather imagine it was me in an alternate world and for the female chars is when i fell like controlling a female,i dont really like to play the famle chars ,usually gets hit on by people and i kinda feel like people are treating me as a female which i dont really aprreciate,oh yes i could always look at others female chars if im tired of my male chars anyway ..lol..because obviously i know that usually only girls/woman knows how to dress their female chars to look hot according to my high taste

Personally, I find the female character more aesthetically pleasing.

I play 3 pve female characters. i started ranger, and even if i like the 60k armor, i wish i created a male ranger (i like the dance and the look of the character).

Then i started a warrior. Female too, because male warriors just look bad. And i wanted to have a better looking char than my ranger. And then the necro. Male necros are just so ugly. i dont want to look at marylin manson each time i play necro.

Anyway, my pvp char are often males because i dont like monk and mesmer female looks.

I also erased my male ele because he was just too ridiculous in his stupid closes.

I wish i had a male monk or ranger to buy fow armor...

Anyway, even if the male warrior is ugly, i'd like to have this crazy dance...

So when i create a new char i think about

-look

-armors

-dance (but pvp char can dance too )

- and also, having nolife 12 year old guys offering me gold and stuff just because i play a female char hahaha ! (that's not totally exact, someone gave me 2 plat when i played with my male ele)

Well, me being a male, all the six GW: Prophecies characters which I have played have been males.

My Gw: Factions characters will be females and I may make an elementalist, an assassin and a ritualist.

The reason is that I like japanese, korean and chinese females.

For me it depends on the character. I currently play two males and one female. Essentially they are all members of the same family but all have their own way of doign things so they do not "hang out" together (which, of course, is impossible). As I solo most of the time, owing to the difficulty in finding any compatible players with which to form a team, I do not find myself getting any advantage by playing a female (unless having some toad get in my face and say "ur hot"). ;-)

I have seen many female warriors played by men, it kinda makes me mad. I do not like laziness. All they do is play this game 24 hours a day. I play football and track, I do not know how they can live with themselves sitting on their asses all day... Just my thoughts.

Hmm, one of the few women who play this game I guess...

i have 4 characters...3 female and 1 male.

the warriors are ALL ugly so I dont even have one of them

elementals are much better looking female as are the mesmers, the necros, just dont like the stance of the male one and the monks are a toss up.

so I have a female ele, a female mesmer and a female necro, my male is monk....

my husband has 3 characters...2 female and one male.
females are ranger and ele (reason stated above) and male warrior (I made him make that one when I made my first character the ele, but its still buttt ugly).

the characters are just better looking female for the most part (some of the males are tooo bad), and male armor just suuucks. (male necro FOW armor looks more like a skirt!)

with the new factions characters, once again the female looks more appealing than the male so I will be making a female ritualist...not sure about my other half.....................
