I've never seen a female playing a male character, and yet...

Any gnomes I roll are female. I find the male sound files way too annoying, and I actually like the female sound files. Plus, I think its funny and ironic when a cute little gnome with pink pigtails stunlocks someone/something to death.

The dranaei is another close call, though. Unfortunately, I find them both equally annoying, so I just rolled a male.

Down with the space goats.

I rolled a dude because I'm a dude.

I'm a male, and I made all my characters male except for my BE female because, as someone said earlier, it's the only option.

I just choose which fits the class and race i choose best

when i play this game i consider my char to be "me" in the game kinda as a representation..

This is why I choose a female character in all the games I play.

To an above poster, every female I know that plays WoW has at least 2 characters. I myself have 3 at level 80.

I am always amused when I see a couple I know ingame playing, her a male character and him a female one.

I do not understand the problem a lot of people seem to have with males playing female toons.

First of all: This is a role-playing-game! If you think the char is you, you have a serious problem!
Second: Female chars have some advantages vs. male ones, they are less bulky, making them smaller targets and giving a better view on your surroundings. Speaking of better view, as a heterosexual male i DO prefer looking at a female butt and there is nothing wrong with that.

In my opinion this debate is either cooked up by sexually insecure kids or men who are unsure if they might have some gay tendency and want to prove themself as men by playing only male chars.

I truly hope this will be the last treat about this for a long time.

My chars: female troll rogue, female orc lock, male tauren druid...my female chars are somewhat balanced by my gf playing a MALE troll hunter, because he's cool, mon ;o)

Well I'm a woman, an old one at that. Most of you probably are younger than my own kids. :P

Anyway I play on 4 servers, mostly so I can test out the three DK talent trees and my main toon (male nelf) is on the 4th server. Altogether I have 20 toons, the majority being males. I just like looking at muscles and 6 packs more than bouncy chests and butts. :P
Besides I've been a tomboy my whole life and just think the female body language is too...valley girlish! (with the exception of orcs)

My very first toon was a male tauren hunter, which was great until I took him into SFK! He's so big that its almost impossible to see what he's attacking in confined spaces! lol So he has been on the shelf for a while.

My only females are a troll hunter, troll rogue, orc DK, and human pally. The rest are guys. XD

On my main realm (RPPvP), I play 5 of each gender, carefully selected to be precisely that number.
There are plenty of reasons I play female characters half the time. Sure, I like getting preferential treatment. Sure, I hate being told I'm being emo and should shut up (or any of the less direct ways boys in Kindergarten think they should misbehave towards girls). But mostly, I like watching a girl character do things the way I'd like her to do them, and say what I'd prefer her to say. To be fair, the same goes with male characters.
As someone who enjoys RP immensely, the gender of a character is hugely important. If a male character behaves gently, this says one thing about the character. A female character behaving in exactly the same way, it says something else completely. It's all part of the show I watch on my screen and in my head.
It's also worth noting that sometimes, I choose gender based on lore or just a gut feeling. Although night elves have relaxed the gender-specificity on classes, I'd make a female priest or warrior, but male druid (and I did). When i occasionally play Horde, I pretty much always choose male characters for trolls and orcs. I've been around since the first Warcraft, and all them orcs and them trolls were male, so they still are in my head. That being said, I think the female trolls are very sexy. That just isn't enough reason to play one. On a similar note, I've never made a female dwarf. Dwarfs are guys in my head.
So, I guess there are many reasons for playing one or the other. I usually do not disclose my RL gender in casual play. Why should it matter? As someone pointed out, I am not my character.

my final goal is to have a level 80 in every class...so i try to mix it up, both males and females.

any Dwarf i make will always be a male (i just see Dwarfs being as guys), same goes for the Troll (females scare me), or Orc (scare me more than female Trolls)

Humans will always be females (dont like how they look, especially the hair styles)

Draenei i perfer females but i'll make a male too...same goes for BE and NE.

My bank alts are always females though...just like in RL, they want everything lol
