I've been playing since ARR beta - about two years as a male elezen, after that I gave up on the dream that we'd ever get nice long hairstyles for guys (I know we did since then) and I changed to a FemRoe (I'm not using mods, so if I want long hair, FemRoes are really the way to go. Great race-exclusive hairstyles!). That makes about 2.5 years of having a female character.

The clostest to getting hit on with my male elezen was one person telling me that they really liked my glamour while we were waiting for someone to finish the cutscene in Leviathan NM.
I have, however, been getting a few - I didnt keep count - weird and creepy textes since I've been playing a female Roe. I suspect they're to "special intrest" to draw that much attention and I usual dont linger in public places, but the ones I got were enough. Never reported them, though - they didnt bother me to much after all.

Obviously this isnt enough of a sample size and I dont wanna claim that male characters dont get hit on - but I suspect, drawing from my own experience, that its far less likely. So yeah, it does make a difference.
