[QUOTE="Lylandra, post: 6945794, member: 6816692"] HAHA, i've never ever seen anyone do that. I've played a character who was really afraid of pregnancy (her mother and grandmother died in childbirth) and she did mention feeling uncomfortable when it was "that time of the month", but I agree that imparting such bodily functions should be up to the player, not the GM. Also, my first step as a GM in a more mature campaign would be to ask whether sexually active PCs have thought about using "protection herbs" in order to prevent alimony charges or pregnancy ;) (and yes, my players tend to be very careful, especially those who like to romance a lot) More on topic, I've rarely seen players playing a different gender, although I don't have any problem with it as long as the player is not doing it "for the lulz" or in order to gain favours (some GMs are prone to letting female PCs seduce NPC far more easily than male ones). Not considering my NPCs, I've played two male PCs so far (a stereotypical knight and a sorcerer/monk) and I had a much harder time connecting with them, even if I really enjoyed playing them. NPC are far easier for me. [/QUOTE]
