    You will find that "lots" of guys play female toons. I always play a female toon. I figure if I am going to spend hours at a time watching a bouncing butt, it might as well be female. LOL
    My boyfriend is the same way. He has about 8 different characters and the only one that's male is his barb.

    He's even played the same "female" runescape account for over 4 years. b:chuckle

    I am male. Most of my characters in games are female. But I seem to always take the male ones the furthest (highest lvl, etc...).

    I only think it's "wrong" when said male players actually try to convince everyone they're actually a girl *shudder*. But you can usually tell from how they act. And if not that, the first time you ask them to get on TS or Vent usually makes it obvious.b:laugh

    Odd that this comes up now, because just yesterday I rolled a Veno to mule for Mr. Fall. Still in the starting area, another Veno runs up to me and I get a PM saying "are u a le*bian?" I just ignored him/her/it. Most likely 'him'.

    My boyfriend plays a venomancer. =3 It's pretty sad that they don't have same-sex marriage.

    ohh troll vs troll battle, the battle of the anoyance, let the retardness commence.
    (even tho i agree with OMGLAZERZ)
    if ur playing a MMO and dislike the idea of males using female characters for toons...then an MMO is the wrong place for you to be, go play a single player game where the character is male only.

    I'm a man, I play a girl, and I enjoy single player games with females in them. The girls always seem to have more flashy attacks and skills than guys for some reason... Granted, they're not always effective... But, hey. If I'm going to be using the same skillset the entire game, I'd rather have something that doesn't put me to sleep. Anyone play Tales of Legendia? The only sword user in the game was Female, and she was much more awesome than the main character. How about Smash Bros? My main is Zelda. Tomb Raider? Metroid? The list goes on, and on. Honestly, it's about time women stopped being simple damsels in distress, and started busting heads as well as the guys.

    I know what you mean, from what ive noticed more work gets put into the visual aspect of the female sex, in real life as well. Clothes for example, maybee most guys are just dull and have no imagination.

    Yeah, but there's the double standard. Many girls play guy characters because they know if they play a girl, they'll get hit on... And there are a LOT of girls that love the attention, but there are quite a few that hate it as well.

    One of my close friends plays halo a lot, she's constantly harassed and unicr0n?ed. She's twisted though, she enjoys letting them see her and then being mean to them before she kills them. haha.

    Oo

    Since when is a guy playing a female character a bannable offense?

    Unless you mean pretending to actually be a girl in real life to trick other guy players? And even in those cases, banning is usually a stretch...

    In actual fact, it's encouraged that we keep our true gender as well as any other personal information secret. Players are not obliged to inform their RL gender to anyone here really.

    I...hate....the chickdudes of pwi. I know a lot of them in my faction and am good friends with many of them but other than my factionmates i generally try to ignore obvious chickdudes. Also if I'm ever interested in a lady b:dirty I always try to find out if its a dude or a chick before pursuing them usually by asking or asking some of my friends if they know xD.

    However I like how some male venos make it so obvious they are a dude my making their female character look hideous, manly, bald, green skinned, ect. just to let everyone know that they are male. So if your a male wanting to play a veno plz do that^^

    See its black and white now. It means I quit! How poetic and stuff.

    I think this need to be moved to the Veno forum like the Cleric one did.

    Venos only come in one sex Solaluna -but I see you are new to the board.

    where does it say that its bannable? truly, i do want to know. thats something i had never heard.

    and while i dont really mind a guy playing a veno/girl playing barb, i *really* do wish there was some system in place to ID the real gender of the player. its so confusing to be in a faction, and be thinking/talking about 'her', and the person gets POed about that, and says 'im a guy!' well, how the bleep is anyone supposed to know? all you can see is the character onscreen, and going around constantly asking others what gender they are is a waste of time.

    How boutcha ask him/her yourself and see?

    I've got no problem with guys playing as girls. I always get a laugh out of usernames like "Dude in drag" etc. It can get kind of confusing though. I usually just assume they're their game gender and look out for signs that mean otherwise.
