Maybe it's because some guys are uncomfortable around women (and imagining everyone is a man eases this feeling of discomfort?).
    Pretty sad isn't it?

    Personally I find it easier to address characters (and posters) by their apparent gender and name, unless instructed otherwise.

    One thing I have found playing Kosmos for almost 5 years now (Kos transferred from another game to FFXIV ARR when it launched...), is that I am comfortable being addressed as Kosmos, Kos, or other diminutives of Kosmos and would find it odd for people to address me in-game as anything but the beautiful, blue-haired, red eyed, formerly cybernetic combat android who now sports a more gentle disposition, tail and ears. Hell, I'd probably answer to Kosmos or Kos IRL now.

    Yeah people know I'm Lauren, but they call me Sera (short for Seraphim). It's easier to embody your character and have others treat you as so even if your character isn't reflective of what you really are its who you made yourself to be.

    Be free and create yourself.
