Male Character vs Female Character
Short
I have one female character. An ele. For the simple reason that male eles are completely fugly.
Smarty
Mostly male characters for several reasons. I like the faces, the armour and the dances better on most male characters. I dislike the way other players interact with me when I'm on a female character and prefer that random people think I'm a male player. Plus, it makes me laugh every time someone who's heard me on vent/TS puts someone else straight regarding my RL gender and they're all "no wai" about it. 
I do have some female characters though. Female warriors look much better than males, female monks look much better than males, and jiggly boob ele dance ftw!

I gender swapped a few of my chars, so now I have as many females as males, simply cause I couldnt stand the look on some, especially male paras, you can either make them look old or as if they just stepped out of a boy band audition.

I use whatever I feel suits the character's class. Roughly evenly mixed overall.

I am male.
I have 11 female characters.
The reason for this is:
I didn't like any of the male facial features or hairstyles.
That and I couldn't make them look the way I wanted body size-wise.

I'm always watching my enchantments. Then, when I'm running around, I'm watching the radar too see whats coming up.
I wish people would play the gender they really are. Otherwise it makes me feel like I'm surrounded by a bunch of 13 year old perverts. No offense. God I'm about to get flamed. |
but, but, but, if everyone made their characters RL gender related, there would be like 5% female population, and THAT would look a lot creepier haha. Imagine an outpost filled with 50 males and only 3 females, that would be a wammo's humpfest.
Male here

Paragon = female
Assassin= female (love the /dance)
Ranger = female (made her 2006, just keeping her for the gifts and some random mish help)

Female with all female characters.
I tried playing a male, it just didn't work out for me, although I really like how the male toons look... especially the rangers.

Female with all 10 female characters on my main account.
I also have a second account that I maintain as a mule and to play with but they are mostly male. I rarely use them but it's sometimes fun to play as male.

Male with 2 female characters.
Female monks and females rangers look much better than their male counterparts.

Medi Lena
Female with all female characters. I'm guilty of making them that way so I can dress them up prettily, like barbie dolls. [: Plus, all male chars are ugly, and so are their armor sets.
DigitalFear
i'm male and i have 6 male and 2 female characters, and people still call me a fag for that. lol
Shadowspawn X
I am male and have all male characters. However, I have one female pvp monk because I'm such a horrible monk and need to hide my identity when I play one. I'm sure no one will ever associate the toon with me thereby keeping my reputation in tact.
Monk of Myst
I'm female and I do play all female characters...until recently where I did make a male monk but I'm not fond of the way he looks...he'll probably get deleted.

I actually tried to make a male monk that I liked using the stylist, and I can't.

When I get to the "select gender" screen, I just hit next.
Qing Guang
I have never, in my whole memory of gaming, made a male character for any game. It's just that I like to RP a little (even if it's just by myself), build a mindset for my chara, a personality. To do that I need to be able to understand how their thoughts work... and I'd rather go from personal experience than try and figure out what makes the little wheels go inside guys' heads. So each of my girls is an aspect of my personality - Gui is my inner child, Qing is my intellect, Xuta is my wisdom, Jenna my stubborness, etc. It's just easier on me that way.
Also, I hate drawing males.
And anyway, people call me "he" often enough as it is. Making my characters male would only further confuse things.

Im Male and have all female characters, funny part is I used to have all male chars, but then I changed over time to all female chars cause they look sexy. (I PvP)
Kuran
i feel if u like playing Tomb Raider or any other game where the main char is a female...then u should be ok with playing other games as a female...i perfer to look at the women more then the men...in alot of games..the female is always just better looking..not that i try and act as a female when im playing one...its just the look...i hate bulky chars or when the men have a female shape..Mesmers, Ranger, and elementalist all look like they have been taken estrogen or sumting...
king_trouble
Well for me it all comes down to how the majority of the armor looks, for certain professions I don't like how the armor looks compared to the other gender.

female characters are so weak and euro.
male characters are RED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GOing strong and manly.

Calvar Draveir
I'm male, and have just a female Necro. It's just cause' I had this name bouncing around in my head "Countess Imogen", and I didn't have a necro. And the name really does fit a female Necro well, I think. I really just can't play as female chars, though. I like looking at my char and seeing at least SOME of myself in their body shape.
M @ T
Male with females here. Just cause boobs and a sturdy arse <3 even on a game.
laksa and curry
Just to side track.... By looking at the polls we now know that female players make up about 14% of the game... I wonder why so many guys still claim they are girls^^.
Nanu Li
I'm female with only female characters. I tried making some male characters but didn't quite like their looks. Besides I tend to identify myself with my characters, each of them is an alter ego of mine

It's not necessarily representative of the actual makeup of the game.

I'm female with all-female characters.
I tried a few male charactes, but it really wasn't me. Plus, I'm really not into the whoe body-builder look that goes with male warriors (not that I can really work the warrior class either, but there you go).
I'm about average height in real life, so I tend to go with mid-range females when I create a character. At the moment I have one of everything bur warrior and necro. I have no warriors and two necros, (only coz one of my necros is my oldest remaining character and I don't really have the heart to get rid of her).
(As a woman, I could complain about the equally stereotypical female figure, but to be honest, if in real life women were running around that much, you wouldn't see many overweight people there either.)

Female with female characters.
Only have one male ranger - because I've liked how he looks (and with long blond hair and dressed in red - he can also pass as female).

I have mostly male characters, but there are some exceptions.
Ranger- Male, 1 pvp 1 pve
Ritualist -Male (kinda want female :\)
Dervish- Male
Mesmer -Female
Warrior -Female
Necromancer -Male
Some classes are fit to be male, and some are fit to be female. Take the mesmer for example.

Spookii
I'm female and I have 11 female characters, only 1 male character (and I don't even play him. I mostly got him for the armor).
I don't think there's anything wrong with making characters of the opposite sex. *Shrug* It's only a game.
