I'm just curious as to why I join a party chat with all men and then inspect their characters to find female characters. Can someone explain this to me?
Edit: I don't care nor does it bother me that men choose to play as female avatars, I was only curious as to why they choose to do so. Most of the answers so far have been interesting/enlightening.

1 ReplyWhy do humans play as awoken exos? Cause we can. Also why is there a male and female version of the Exo, isn't basically non gender?

Why not?

Because we want to!!

Edited by Grampuncle: 6/19/2015 9:19:59 AMWhy do males play Tomb Raider? Why do Females play Mario? Why do either play as a Blue hedgehog, Sack Boy, a ball of goo, dragons, fish, badgers, or any other weird and wonderful thing? More to the point, what does it matter? It's a bloody game and not some way of assisting spotty oiks to meet girls.

I have a female awoken hunter, male human titan, female human warlock and I'm a big bearded Scotsman. The characters all seemed to fit themselves as I made them and none of them is me so the gender thing has never been given a thought. I do find other peoples assumptions of me based on the character they see of their screens amusing though. It's not often I am messaged saying I'm "sexy". Oh, if only they could see the real me.

Idk, cuz I felt like it.

I like women. I make woman. I get to stare at woman.

I like to switch things up a bit when making characters

I have a male titan, female hunter and exo warlock as that seems to fit the classes the most imo

From what I've read on the many threads that pop up about this the main difference between people who have issues with this and those that don't are how you see your guardian. Some people see it as an extension of themselves in the gameworld thus find the genderswap thing strange. Others like me just see it as a character I made. I have both genders as I don't see my guardians as me. It's my badass space ninja woman. ;D

Got a female titan because she's not so big and the skirts look better on the female version

I only play as a female hunter

I got tired of looking at a dudes ass the whole time

My favorite "reason" is that female characters have smaller hit boxes, so they take more accuracy to land shots on them. HA!
-
Both of my friends plays female avatars. They just like to watch female bodies more than males they said.
-
Meh. I have both. I personally think the female Hunters look better in the cloak and armor.

Why do people constantly ask this daft as sin question?
-
I've gone back and forth making Male and Female Hunters. I've come to realize that Male Hunters look like divers wearing bath towels..

I hate when I join a part with all humans just to find out their characters are awoken or exo.

The Exo female does have the best dance in the game tho.
