    This game seems to have a really high percentage of females that play male characters, at least in my personal experience. I think it's because this game offers a lot of "bishie" male options instead of the usual MMO fare. I know when I was a male character, I gave him kind of a young, pretty face. That's not to say that I myself won't play a more muscular male (in fact, I'm planning on being a male Au Ra) but many women (again, in my personal experience) seem to be put off by it and would much rather play a male that's not a hulking pile of testosterone.

    My daughter is edging closer and closer to subscribing because of this(meaning I'm closer to having another 15 bucks a month going to SE <sigh>).

    Possible. If I wasn't attached to the male lalafell sprite I've got I would've had a male highlander. I might've gone male Au Ra. Though I don't mind FemRoe or female highlander, I've preferred male miqo'te as well. So of all the possible "characters" I could be I've got 4 males vs 2 females.
