[Fun] Why do you use a female character?

I rolled a male elvaan in FFXI and did so again in FFXIV. Figured if I was going to be watching this character all day, why not make it something I would enjoy looking at? :)

Agree that lalafell are super cute. That's why my second main char is a lalafell. But damn, they have it really difficult against cat girls... :3

PS: Maybe I'm just lying to myself, and because I like potatoes I also like lalafells!

Originally through my early World of Warcraft days I played only male characters,but around the end of BC I was watching a Premonition kill video and seeing Xav's character kind of inspired me to try out a female character because I thought the animations were awesome.

That was a long while ago,but now I don't think i've played a Male character since. My reasoning is mostly aesthetic I won't lie about that, as I like how most the female characters look rather than the males and honestly the male humans and such in this game look like they are 12 in the face lol.

I'd say though that my main reasoning is I like the idea of a strong and battle frenzied heroine. So I don't identify her as myself,but rather something I'm watching unfold from the outside.

I started playing this game as a Hyur male. When I reached level 20 and had access to use retainers, my first one was a Mi'qote female. I liked the way I designed her that I made an alt similar to my retainer. In the end my alt ended up been my main character. Why? Besides been pleasing to my eyes, my main acquired a personality of her own; a curious and cheerful Sunseeker looking for adventure. And when danger rears its head, she can dish out the pain in a way the Garleans will run for the hills.

Totally agree with that vision!... I'm just like a spirit with no form guiding the steps of a silent catgirl that wants to protect everyone.

I used to play female characters when I first started with mmos.

But when random guys start following you around and trying to hit on you.. and to some extent, trying to look you up the skirt or initiate cybering out of nowhere.. whoa. time out. Hell no.

They didn't even pause to confirm if I was a girl or not, wtf.

And so, I've played male characters since and never looked back. No regrets. I've come to prefer having less clones as well. Haha.

I'm still waiting for this class

Mithra for stats for Thief. I think that should be enough said.

My character started off as female but I got sick of the skimpy armor and decided to Fantasia to a guy. *waves to the fellow girls playing male chars*

because i'm bad at making male characters (nothing i attempt while making them i like).

i suppose i have other reasons, but i can't think of them now.
