I had no idea that roleplays had genders xDWell, I have 4 RPs planned, and they're all male. I tend to stick with what I know.
I believe there's more complexity behind female characters.
*coughsophiacough*
My very first character was male, and my second character was female.
There really isn't a difference when writing different genders. Personalities aren't at all restricted to one gender, so I don't understand when people say one is harder to write or that they wouldn't know how to write the other gender.
i only ever write female characters, simply because i don't have enough of an understanding of the male mind to consider myself fit to write as one...
I've only got one female character, and that rp hasn't even started yet. I think guys are much easier to write as, as I believe there's more complexity behind female characters.
Why are you guys downplaying your own worth? Make characters can be complex, just like female can. I like playing as both genders in roughly equal numbers. Men and women aren't that different and I'm a bit sad that some never try to play as the opposite gender. It does affect how other characters view you in situations, since roleplays often have societies similar to our own where there is a difference. Whether we want it or not.I usually stick to the Male side since i still have no idea what can go on in a womans mind.
