Well its an opinion, still tho, i don't know why, ill tell you why i have 2 girl charas. My paragon is a girl because i um don't like the male paragon, man skirts are scary. and my 2nd warrior is a girl because i didn't wanna have another big guy warrior, need vareity. Btw i got 10 charas only 2 are girl.

RE: character question 

Many reasons why guys play girl characters but the main reasons are.

In no particular order.

The armor looks better.
The dances are better.
If you are going to stare at a backside while playing might as well be a nice one.
Who cares it is just a game so get over it.
It's our choice to play what ever character we want. Why did you pick class A over class B.
Personal Preference.

why do girls make guy characters? BECAUSE THEY CAN. It's just a game dude.

RE: character question 

I honestly think this(but have no real way to confirm it), is because there are players out there who will give "freebies" to certain characters based on gender, so some people take advantage of it. This is something I saw in WoW when I used to play (Female NE FTW). Another reason is that some female characters offer...*ahem*..."services" in exchange for monetary gain. Just things I've observed >.>

RE: character question 

It all comes down to player preference. People pay to play the game and they should ultimately be allowed to choose whatever gender they like.

There are no rules (except for choice of name) when you create a character. There is no gender verification system. No Anet employee demanding people to perform a "Pecker check" when you decide to roll a sexy female toon (can you imagine that though LOL).

People will choose the hero of their story in accordance to what appeals to them most. Just as when you decided which character you wanted, if male players choose to create a female characters then that is their choice as a paying customer.

*Edit: Thank Dwayna for the edit button, I'm just waking up and managed to butcher the english language horribly :D Cheers!!

That's it.

RE: character question 

Well, I used to have all female characters, and 9 of them...and then I realized I would never play them all. I deleted all but two (the two furthest along, Ele and Para) and made 4 more chars, all of which are male. Personally, I think the warrior is supposed to look buff...otherwise, how could he carry all that armor? Male Elementalists just look bad, I think, and I agree, a man-skirt for a Paragon seems kinda...weird. Before I deleted my chars, I was making my chars female pretty much to follow what I had done before.

RE: character question 

Same with my bf, he has 10 characters, at least half are female. It's really because the models for some classes and their armors do look better on females, and I have to agree with him. Female armors just seem to have better detail overall.

He made his monk a male and absolutely hates him (calls him a chubby dufus, lol), so now wishes he had rolled a female monk instead since they look slightly better (though even those he says look like 12 year old girls, teehee). His female mesmer is his pride and joy though, his favorite armor ever is that 15k Canthan because he loves dragons and that's what the armor has on it.

But yeah, it's a game, people play what they think is something nice to look at. I don't blame anyone one bit for their choice, so long as they enjoy their game :-)

RE: character question 

i dont think it really matters who you pick. it just bugs me when i see some noobish 10 year old trying to make love to a female avatar, and that avatar is a guy in real life. makes me wanna slap the dude and get a clue.

"We?"

As for looking at the behind of characters for two hours, I don't know about the lot of y'all here, but when I play GW, I don't look at my characters behind all the time. Hell, if you got the cape on, you can't even see it.

I got some female characters, though... I don't know why, guess I base my decision on the armor whether or not I make a character male or female.

Studies show that 92% of teens listen to rap. If you are part of the 8% that listens to real music the add this to your signature.
Sticks and stones may break my bones but chains and whips excite me.

RE: character question 

is the question why do people make alot of female characters or why do some people make alot of male characters?

why did you make a male char? dont say because your a guy (if you are) and give a reason, mainlyut preferance imo


i got maybe 3/4 guys out of 9

the names i pick for a class are easier fit on a female char anywayut easier

I'm comfortable with the distinction that the character on screen and me are different it allows me to detach myself for the brutality of what the character does: Also I like staring at lady bottoms.

RE: character question 

Character selection screen basically asks "Which one of these chars looks the best to you? The fat male warrior or the sexy female ele?"
I just choose what looks the best :D

RE: character question 

So how about being able to create a character that's a dwarf, elf, gnome or giant cow? I think making female chars is pretty tame tbh!
