cross gender fun?

[alsih2o]

we have all played another race in our various games, but i notice a hesitancy in many to play another gender...so...

have you ever played a character of another gender?

Yeah occasionally, but it really depends on the maturity level of the group I'm playing with, and since my new groups is all newbies I doubt it will happen again any time soon.

I'm DMing one on one with a friend, and initially he was playing a female, but recently he decreed his character is in fact male. No reason why he picked female to begin with; no reason why he's changing now. Oh, well.

My friends are mature. The character I play most frequently is a female bladesinger. She kicks butt

I'm a DM. It's pretty hard to avoid running a female character from time to time.

Only online. I'm a big guy, got the whole facial hair thing going, and well it would really come across as silly face to face, but playing online removes that distraction and constant reminder.

Yes, but its no fun with a vindictive bastard for a GM. As a rule in his games, any female characters will invariably get pregnant and lose their kids (weather stillborn or sacrificed to dark gods depends on the campaign). It sucks badly.

I play female characters about as often as I play male ones. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. It depends on the campaign. Some people have been surprised to find out that I'm playing a female character, but everyone is generally ok with it.

333 Dave, give me your GM's address so I can abduct him in the middle of the night and give him a sound thrashing. Aw...who am I kidding? My cats could beat me up. Still, the guy sounds like a disgrace to our profession.

I have rped three female characters, a transvestite Orc and a hermaphrodite

Currently (online game) I have a female monk who being raised cloistered in a monastary is socially ackward and only now learning to be a bit more feminine eg she has actually stopped shaving her hair bald and has let it grow - a little.

Either I am narrow-minded, or your just WIERD.
