my character on Rainbow Six Vegas is a woman.
who cares what gender a video-game character you play as is?
girls should be allowed to play as guys and guys should be allowed to play as girls…end of story
At first I noticed it was quite common to have male players using female characters, so I decided to play with male characters that I liked as well and everybody lived happily ever after.
Putting aside the "cute" games, most of those characters are common steriotypes that people can identify with, or feel better when playing with them, satisfying some inner wills when they project themselves on those characters.
Male and female characters are done to satisfy both genders. When you play with the same gender, it's like you identify yourself with your character easier (but it can happen with the opposite as well), and when you play with the opposite, it is (most of the time) because you like the appearence of your character, you like to look at him/her.
But I have to admit, as a female player, many times I find myself having trouble to identify with female characters and that's the reason I like to play mostly with male chars. I know there are other female players who like those chars, I don'T blame them, but I wished more options rather than "petit cute" or "little-to-no clothes"
This is a different topic, sorry, it's because I didn't experience the actual subject.
Cute things cool my rage, which allows me to function as a normally fellow of the internet, rather than Godzilla's Internet Hate Machine.
But enough about my past, I like cute female characters because, eh, they're cute, and it is fun to watch them fight demons larger than them, and kick their ass.
As I say, if women wish for equality, they need to step up to the plate. I don't care how insensitive it sounds, because the truth has no sensitivity.
