Men should mostly play as men, rarely as women and Women should mostly play as women, rarely as men in video games.
It is the matter of personality not as fluid as colors, smells, tastes but not too important also.

Really?  Did you write the rulebook on this?

I think people should be allowed to play as whoever they want.

3). The Jennifer Hale cult creeps me out and actively turns me off of wanting to play a Shepard of my own gender.
4). I want to counteract the male bashing that permeates this entire fandom (not just this partticular forum; I mean the entire fandom).


Wow, someone is really burned and bitter.  Where is this cult at, can you provide links?  If the entire FemShep fandom is always "bashing" MaleShep how come every single post on the FemShep thread page isn't showing, "I hate ManShep and he should be removed from the game so FemShep can take his place!" 

I noticed a lot of MaleShep fans getting things twisted just because FemShep fans have a preference for their favorite character and their voice actor.  I didn't know that comparing vo's was bashing or saying that FemShep is more of a character than ManShep the avatar?  I've seen quite a lot of "women can't be soldiers, she's not strong enough to be believeable, she sounds/looks butch, and needs to get back in the kitchen" around here but you don't see many of us saying that the entire MaleShep fanbase loves to hate on FemShep.

Most of what I've been seeing is for the lead female character and her voice actor to get some more recognition.  I haven't seen demands, only request threads but the people against this say that we whine and demand .  I guess paying customers aren't allowed to request things unless they are in the majority. :? 



^ This. QFT.
Also, just want to point out that the FemShep community is pretty much 50/50 in terms of female and male ratio. It's not just the girls. People can play whoever they want, whatever they want in their game.

I can't help feeling that's about as meaningful as saying that people should mostly play whilst wearing a top hat at least 3' high.

But what makes a hetero guy want to play as a female Shepard?

A person comfortable in who they are wanting to play a character instead of a self insert?

Sorry, but this is [baba ghanouj]. People should play as whatever they want, no matter gender.

Like I said, almost 50% or more of the FemShep community are straight males. I asked at one point and most of them said "I don't want to be staring at a man's ass all day" or something similar to that line. It might also be because they prefer Hale VA over Meer, or they like lesbian action. (Liara! ... But really, double standards are retarded.) or...They wanna get with Garrus 'cuz he's super bromance material and if you want more than that it can only happen with FemShep. It's also a different experience. There are many reasons.

My reason why I play FemShep as well even though I'm straight male?


Roleplaying.

The same thing that makes a perfectly hetero guy want to play games like Mirror's Edge, Silent Hill 3, Resident Evil 3: Nemesis, etc. Sexual orientation has NOTHING to do with this.

Should is the verb of suggestion. rynluna made it rules.
Whatever, I wonder if there was no kind of rule, what would persons like rynluna do? It seems they hate any rules in the world.

There are multiple reasons, and sometimes it depends on the game. I'm a hetero male myself, but I only play as a female when I'm playing Divinity II Ego Draconis. Why? Because of the running animation. I REALLY don't like the animation.


But there are other reasons as well.

Perhaps one should take Garbage Master's chosen handle as a clue to what they're about and ignore him/her.

I guess I should be sent to an Asylum right away then! Still, that's a really insensitive statement, judging people based on how they prefer playing their game. I play Female Shepard, because I think that Jennifer Hale makes the whole Mass Effect experience a lot more enjoyable for me. We all have our preferences.
