Why?
Because I like change sometimes.

I also have 1 of each gender in SWTOR, a healthy mix in DDO, 1 of each for Hawke in DAII, a variety in DA:O, played as both in KOTOR and KOTORII, and so on. It brings variety and when given the chance I do play them very differently.
It's nice to be able to actually role-play as a character totally unlike you, and I admit femshep has totally grown on me to the point my broshep runs are left sitting for me to play them again. I've still yet to play broshep in ME3.
I still don't understand why this is an issue for people when it's not their Shepard or why this question crops up in every game I play. Hell my wife was given grief in DDO for playing a male character based off Sabretooth by a guy playing a female character. Figure that one out.

If I have a choice I always choose a male character because, being a male, I feel I can relate to the character more or see myself in their role. So why do guys play as female characters?
Well, whenever I create a character in an RPG or RPG-ish game, I come up with a really basic, 1-2 sentence concept that gives me direction for what actions to take as I play through the game. I find that some concepts fit male characters better, and others fit female characters better, and so I make both male and female characters whom I can relate to equally well.

( I had a whole rant all planned out about why this topic keeps popping up, but then I realized that this is an old thread so I shortened it considerably

Interesting enough I only played Male Shep ever since I played ME and that continued until today, never played with FemShep until recently after I finished the trilogy on my PS3 I decided to give her a go so far I like, oddly enough its so much easier to make a good looking Shep with females than with Male version.
Maybe it's because as a guy who i assume is heteorsexual, you KNOW what looks good to you, so making a good looking female is easier, than a GUY since subconsciously might be admitting to something that you're not comfortable with. lol

Same reason I (female, btw) always play as Sheploo. If I'm gonna stare at the same character for 30 hours or so, I want some eye candy. Plus it's easier to role play if your character is distinctly different from you.

Is it really that hard to imagine someone roleplaying as a person completely different from them? God.

i really don'it kbow i always play as a male, But i think it might boil down to lesbians are hot! (;
This could be true as I've killed Kaiden every chance i've gotten, i never romanced him as femshep and never even considered romancing him as sheploo. (where does sheploo come from anyway?)

That's because they shouldn't care. I play both as well. Playing as femshep gives the series a different flavor.

Ok, and staring at a fake female's ass while playing is not motivation enough to play as FemShep. There are a lot more spectacular fake asses and ****** in porn.

From the name of the model they used as inspiration for him, i believe? Or was it his voice actor?

However the main reason why i prefer playing fem. Shepard or just female in any game is because i just feel alot more badass when i see woman kicking someone's ass + too many games and movies are puting males in front.
There are barely any good main female protagonists nowadays they either just over sexualize them or the overall movie sucks (like Hunger Games and Resident Evil). We need more: Ripley, Beatrix and Sarah Connor type of protagonists.
