[quote=@Drache] Here's another one: WHY DOES THIS MATTER!? I get wanting to only PLAY male or female characters (can't relate but I guess it's fair) but what difference does it make if the person on the other side of the computer screen has a ding-dong (OR DOESN'T)??!?!?! I don't know why this continues to annoy me when the people who insist on matching player gender to character gender always turn out to be shitty RPers anyways but lord if it doesn't seem so...I don't know...pretentious? Arrogant? [/quote] I joined a roleplay where I played a male character. Never claimed to be one, just had the character. The GM sent me flirtatious messages, and my response was something along the lines of "sorry, I'm flattered, but I'm a woman with a fiance I'll be marrying in a year or so." She actually cut me from the roleplay for "not being entirely truthful." I guess people see what they want to see.
