i play female characters because i enjoy playing them more than males. same as when i was a little boy, i played with dolls with the girls up the street instead of with GI joe with the boys.
i guess that sort of thing has carried on into my mmo gaming. i also really enjoy fashion. well, i enjoy womens fashion, and hair and makeup stuff. mens fashion and hair is always boring and all so similar. girls get all the cool stuff lol.
