[quote=@BrokenPromise] [@GeekFactor] Mmmmm, Good post, but by your example you'd think three woman I've met IRL were men based on how they choose to play their characters. Though you've mentioned something that seems to be absent from most female characters I've seen. On the topic of relationship crazy lesbians, I do find it both interesting and disturbing that I've come across so many non-hetrosexual characters in my time on RPG guild. I mean I would expect a magical girl roleplay to contain a lot of gay woman, but they seem to crop up almost everywhere. Their sexuality seems to get brought up or hinted at during their first few posts and then they're off to hook up. I wonder if this is wish fulfillment or something else. [/quote] It was just one example, and I did preface it by saying it might not be the best to give. It was off the cuff of a very tired me, and there are so many aspects and angles and layers and variations of human behavior, it's impossible to say "all women are this" or "all men are that". These are merely my thoughts and experiences, and I'll be the first to say I don't always express what I'm thinking in the most coherent manner. I very much agree with your second point.
