Yes there are a lot of us. But try and play an MMO without a female character that has the most visual popularity. Cat girls got very popular for some reason or another, though I wonder if a dog like race got added would there be a change to this if they had a similar like appearance but gave off the dog like feel. Though we'd prob see cat vs dog stereotype fights right? I like cats, it's why I chose this race. As to why I play a female character? I found it easier to relate to over a male character. The Au Ra female will prob come into full force come the expansion. If I wasn't so dedicated to our FC DeathByHairball or would so take a swig of my phantasia and become a dragon lass. I will however make due with another Alt just for the new race. Grind Ho!
