Personally, I'm a full fledged lady in real life who prefers female characters, but I do at times play male characters. I think it just has to do with me preferring to play a gender I know more about.
Though, I don't think it truly matters - gender that is. Sure, at some point, racial aspects and lore, even sexuality and gender have at it. But in reality, I just write for a character and then place all those parts into their character, when I believe one is more fit than the other.
I always find that I seem to be in a room filled with female RPers, and it's been so long that I always have my jaw drop when I see an actual male one...
It's been too long for me, hasn't it.
