My monk is a male cause he looks like George Clinton, all the rest of my toons(one for each profession) are females.

"he" as in me or him? I'm a "she", and what you're explaining is what I meant, but perhaps also what he was trying to say?

"He" as in the person you just quoted, Nightmare's Hammer.

did neither of you understand that I meant "fat" as in too bulky?
"[...]" = read as intentional incorrection or misinterpretation. Concept related to Sense Of Humour.

If you don't mind me saying, 'seems most forumites think of everyone else as retards and themselves as educated intellectuals.
that's probably the reason why there's no humour in "off topic", only flaming.

Yeah kind of true, my reasons are kind of cliché aswell, but women are evil in another non-satan ( necro ) type way, when women act like a ( sorry for the choice of words ) B!tch, they remind me more of a mesmer

There was a typo, it is now corrected. I find it makes perfect sense, I can't be bothered to simplify it further.

yeah, sorry. forgot to look up a synonym for bulky. Surely you understand, either way.
You're all making this into something way bigger than it needs to be...
Do some of you actually find my personal opinion offensive/provoking? In that case, I will of course delete my comment. If you're just being picky about my choice of words, back to topic.

Canada...... Eh!

Sooooo, I'm the only one who chooses the gender of their characters based on the /dance emote? Seriously, that's how I chose gender. I made a character and checked out it's dance. I currently have 15 character slots, 8 male and 7 female. Although I do have 2 male rangers and 1 female, but the 2 male ones are mules..... and 1 male warrior and 1 female.... and 1 male ele and 1 female ele. I only made extras of them because I liked the armor. Otherwise i based gender selection on the dance alone. It's why my Sin is male. Seriously, have you seen the female sin's dance? It's like she's having a full blown epileptic seizure.

My female Rit, I got the Collector's Edition of Factions solely for that dance. Hot damn, though I miss my Mini Kunna

As I've said before, and I'll say it again: I choose based on style, what I think pretty or attractive. I have appearances, armour and weapons that appease me, no one else.

I'm female, and I'd make a male character if I thought that the choices of face/armor given to most male characters in the game were near as decent as the female ones. (I roll males for AB sometimes, though.)

I am male, and I play female toons. Just more appealing to my eye. I don't play my character as 'me', but as my character, and I appreciate the feminine form more than the masculine in a way that I don't think is perverted. At least, I haven't played naked yet . . . . (I can imagine explaining that to my wife!)

Different thread came up on the same topic, it was obviously locked, hence the revival.

Male with Female characters, since Female characters just look better. I just assume everyone is a man, until a real chick actually comes into Vent or TS or something and actually starts speaking.

I am female with 10 female characters, no male
I don't see any reason why people can't choose characters of a different gender though as it's roleplay, but it's never appealed to me.

I'm female and all my chars are female (unless I make PVP ones just for screenshots or something but I don't play them). I also try to make all my characters (at least on my main account) look as much like me as possible. I chose female because that's what I am.

I'm a male and I play all male characters except for one profession. I don't like the build of the make warriors, so mine is a female. I don't understand why the males have to giant and bulky

Oh god. WTB crappy "it's just pixels!" rhetoric.

I have both male and female characters, about 50/50. Male warrior, ranger, elementalist, monk. Female ritualist and dervish. It just so happens that I ended up like the dervish the most, and that's how my main ended up being female. I suppose my rules is if the guy wears a skirt, I make it female? lol...

Really though, think about how many male professions wear skirts. Out of ten professions, you have (some) warriors, ritualists, dervishes, and paragons. Rather excessive. A kilt might be cool, though. If there weren't enough skirts already.

I'm a Male with all Male toons. I've made a few Female, or my wife has dropped a Female on my acct to deliver a gift or 2, but I generally delete my Female toons and make them Males.

I have no problems with Males who have Female toons or vice versa, it's all personal preference. Just don't ask me to make my Ele /dance... he looks like he's having a REALLY bad trip...
