It would be very intersting to hear honest answers.
I'm willing to contribute on that.
I'm playing a second character which is a female one, just for kicks and i like to see what silkroad would be like when playing as the opposite gender.
Meaning:I'm also playing this game because i like the difference in attire.

Well I have char of both genders though my main atm is fem. But I think I could cover the main points.
1. There is an aspect of voyeurism involved. Don't believe anyone if they tell you otherwise. It is almost always present.
2. The avalibility and styles of the gear. It is often easier to get good female gear and IMHO most of it looks better. As an asside all SOS items I have ever had dropped that had gender have all been female. Every last one of them regardless of the gender of the char I was playing that got them.
3. More variety in the design of the char themselves. There are 1 male and 1 female char that have unique weapon holding poses. But only 1 floating char and that is female. That gets more ppl than you think.
4. Toying with peoples emotions. While more female players may play MMOs than other games it is still a fact that they are a minority. But that does not stop some guys from hitting on anything that looks remotely female. Or anything that moves for that matter. To make things worse I don't make a fuss if someone refers to me as my chars gender. Which has led to some interesting situations even in union.

Sad, but +1
The female characters are more lucky, get more attention(voyeurism, etc.).
And that makes me think the damn Joymax programmers are all perverts
Despite all thosefacts and the character-gender-balance is 2:2 :
I'm Male-Male

Attractive or not.
Better than looking at the male figure through long hours of playing.
Especially when always hearing male grunts whenever you do a certain skill that produces the grunting sound.
They do look better than the male chars, but still not attractive xD
Oh and i have my sounds off so i dont listen to my char moaning when something hits it

I thought my sig might have given me away. Male and fem char right in it. Further you had met both
Anyhow hope you are having fun in WoW. Unfortunatly I am one of those people you will never see playing it. And I will not cite graphics and gameplay on this. Though I do have issues with gameplay. Mainly it is the setting. Orcs, elves, and humans? Nuff said to cliche for me.

I assumed from your sig of both a fem and male char, that sureshot was some type of / significant other / friend / boyfriend / hubby, because other people on the forum DO have sigs with both. And, ping was your primary avatar.
Ah ha ha haaaaaaaaaaa
lolz thats a bit funny heh , I haven't gotten to play Maddox just yet ~_~ to bad my friend left
On another note O.o its funny when you go away for a while and come back and see what you have missed
Male . .as I said before in the other 2 3-pages threads.
Still don't understand the weird reactions you get when you tell people your male playing a female char. It's not as is I play a female char cause I like to cross dress on Saturday nights .. no.
It's cause the male character .. IMO look so darn square. My glaive 'Plus44' had the female character skin where she carries a glaive/spear on her back .. pretty cool. Now the character I have for crumpets I stole from IowU's vid
Any-who Ryoko I really thought u was a lez with a butch cut. Way to ruin another day for me.
