Gender Bender

Once again, I have recieved another message in Yahoo Messenger, asking for my details. And by that, I mean age, sex, location, likes, dislikes, my type, my vital statistics, and more things I do not care (or want, for that matter) to remember. If the sender were female, I'd be overjoyed.

As many people who know me know, I play a female character in practically every online game I play. I also exhibit some female behavior. Professionals have told me that my male and female sides were equally balanced, and the illusion would be perfect if my looks were androgynous. This carries over online.

I do not mention that I am female at all. Some simply assume I am. That leads to things which do not please me at all. Like sexual harassment. Guys asking for my a/s/l. People actually trying to stalk me. I've sent in quite a few ingame reports over the years.

However, I, and forevermore, will play women in online games. I will endure. I've done so for a long time now. I can stand the jerks and sexually-deprived preteens breathing heavily in 20-peso internet cafes.

My reasons? I am more expressive as a girl for some reason. Another reason? It's easy.

If you are male, which of the below would you rather be staring at for hours on end?

I thought so.

I agree with you on that one. It's much easier to play a girl in online games plus you get loads of perks from other guys. And yes, I'd rather stare at a female avatar for 4-6 hours. hehe

I don't try to get any perks from other guys, and I normally refuse if they give me anything. I don't want to encourage them. <_<
