i am male, my main is female and my next highest alt is female...i play females because they look better from my angle

...tomb raider introduced me to the pleasures of staring at female ass while i play. I also know a few guys who have 4 female alts, and know guys in other games that never play male toons.
if you'd like some real stats to base your opinions on, check out the deadalus project:

Quote:
Men are 3-5 times more likely than women to gender-bend in MMORPGs. The demographic that is most likely to gender-bend are men over the age of 25.
So in this hypothetical population, we have:
260+438+5=703 male characters, of which 5 (1%) are played by female players.
142+32+123=297 female characters, of which 142 (48%) are played by male players.
Thus, about 48% of the female characters you meet in the game are actually played by male players.

the reason why most men playing women toons are over 25 is most likely due to the fact that they are way past the point of sexually defining themselves...ie they are secure in their sexuality, and don't feel their studliness is affected by playing a female toon.
kinda like the guy that turns the tables by saying 'yeah wanna make out?' when one of his peers slings the common teenage insult of 'you're gay' at him.
