In general if a party of mixed-sex is going on these adventures and doing all these dangerous activities together. There is more likely many bonding attributes that are similar, so don't play up the Sex to create some manner of divide.Take the View/Perspective That Feels Most ComfortableThis could relate to the group in the whole and how they feel or just you personally. If you feel more comfortable engaging in 1st Person while playing the opposite sex then more power to you, and if the group is comfortable with that then great.However is there is some level of discomfort for whatever reason, perhaps play it from a 3rd Person Perspective to give a sense of distance between yourself and the group and the character. This can also work for not just opposite sex characters but racist ones, sexist ones, evil ones, etc.</blockquote>
