For me, I'm going to choose the male character in Black when it comes stateside. Although I'm a fan of the female design, I almost always choose the male character. I might use Pokésav to edit my gender in my White ROM though to get a feeling of what it's like playing as the female character.
I never debate over which character to pick, I feel like I have to get male because I'm a male and name it my real name, it just feels customary. I love to personalize my games to suit my real preferences. (ex. I like my OT to be my name "Dillon"). Besides, I think it would be wierd to play as a female, but on Voice Chat you sound like a man, though their are some females that DO sounds that way, lol.
