Male Or Female Characters?
« on: October 02, 2013, 05:25:25 pm »
Which gender do you prefer for your characters?  I personally have almost no female characters.  Even though I am female I have a easier time roleplaying as male characters.  I even made my Fursona, CharChar, male.

My Fursona, Ellie, is a female, though she can genderbend since I like her to have a male side too. I mostly balance out my females and males so I have a decent amount of characters to RP.

I usually make female characters, and that is what my fursona, Kiki is. But once in a while I will make a male character just for the heck or it. ^^

I personally have a good mix of both, however I do tend to enjoy playing my male characters more then the females, more to explore and elaborate on, freedom to express my ideas in a different light. My comfort zone  however will forever lie with the females, I take on stronger Rp roles with them just so I feel like I can express my true feelings and "Authority"  Without having to worry about my girlishness seeping out of  my Male Charrie cx

I have about.. 80 % of male characters and the rest - females. I don't know why, but I prefer male characters. Maybe because I'm a girl and rolelplaying with a male character gives me a chance to look through male eyes. Lol.

I tend to have issues with expressing emotion, and since (unfortunately) females seem to be expected to be more emotional or at least rather expressive I tend to find myself playing male characters. I also tend to prefer the behavior I am expected to have as a male. Anyway there is my useless and rambley thoughts on the subject.

Hermaphrodite

No idea what that means.

But anyways, I mainly do Females, because its easier because I know how they act.
Because I AM a Female! :D

I absolutely hate  female chars. It ussally depeneds the mood I'm in. If I'm just sitting there, I don't care. But I'm almost always a male. And screw the people who think it's freaking gay to play as a female when you're a male, and male when you're a female. A ton of people do it. It's not gay. Just pisses me off. *Off topic* Sorry. But yes, I play as males. (Such as Shadow *Blind*)

Well, it's about 40/60 for me, males to females.

While my "face" on FH is my male lion, Linger (whom I adore, he is my baby<3), I honestly see which characters I use as a reflection of my mood, particularly in terms of male or female.

Especially as of late, some of you may have also noticed me playing my female red wolf (Allegra, shown in my current siggie), who is my real "fursona." As in, if I were to be any of my FH characters, I would probably be Allegra, though Linger is a close second, as a male counter-part of mine.

I don't mind playing either of them, be it OOC or while roleplaying, though I am most comfortable as Allegra.

As characters in general go, though, I have a slight tendency toward females, because I generally find myself understanding them a bit more (lul). However, there are days when I feel a bit more bold, or I just don't feel like playing a female character, or even if I have a RP personality in mind that I think fits a male best.
In this case, I will make a male char, and usually I have no problem playing him.

Mostly females, though I love my guys, too. :3
