Female unless the voice grates on me.

[daveliam]

I'll definitely play as a male for my first playthrough and whatever my 'canon' playthrough is (provided that it's not just a stand-alone game).

 

At some point, I might play as a female.  I played ME1 and 2 with two different female characters, but never got either one through ME3.  The closest I got was getting onto the Normandy with one of them.  I never even loaded the other one.  I'm finding that my interest in playing as a female is waning over time.  Each game, I'm less and less interested.

 

Also, lol at the disclaimer in the OP.  God forbid that someone mistakes you as a boogeyma......I mean SJW, huh? 

[Xerxes52]

Eventually both, but male first.

[We'll bang okay]

I was a male in the first three games, So I might go for female. 

[caradoc2000]

Both, but most likely female on the first playthrough. In many games you have to play as a male protagonist, so in those games that offer a choice I tend to play female first.

Bioware is the only triple A developer that allow you to be a gay protagonist, I'd choose that. In most other games, I'd rather play as females.

I'm a dude and I have no issues playing as a male or female character. Difference is with a male character I can role-play more as who I am and what I am as a person while with a female character I'm role-playing a distinctly different person(even if they are similar in some regards to myself).

For the Mass Effect trilogy I played as the very first Shepard I ever made and carried him through to the end.

This time, I may play as a female protagonist. Depends on when I actually have the game in front of me.

Yeah being male I play most video games as male but for some reason BioWare games like ME and DA seem to flow better as a female.

With a female character I can't really say that I am playing AS them when it's more like I'm directly CONTROLLING them on a deeply personal level.

Funny thing is though when playing a female there is no way I could have a male LI and I always choose to have a female LI' instead.

I'll probably play as a male on the first playthrough and a female on the second. That's my general MO.

[Stormy]

Female.  Being one, try as I might, I can't immerse as male; I can't even pretend to understand them without trying to be comical (though some men may say the same thing about women  )

[Heathen Oxman]

I usually role a bi-racial female first.  I just have a thing for bada$$ warrior chicks.

 

But I always eventually play as male. 

[Fade9wayz]

Female first, since I usually connect more with a female character (unless the voice is truly ridiculous), male then, for all the choices I wouldn't make, and all the female LIs my F protagonist couldn't get. Basically, female for the role-play, and male for **** and giggles.

[Master Race]

Male master gender

[Zazzerka]

Gunna be the blokiest protag I can be. Pathfinder? More like find the path to the local pub. Am I right, lads?

[LPPrince]

With a female character I can't really say that I am playing AS them when it's more like I'm directly CONTROLLING them on a deeply personal level.

 

This, basically. Its like being the author of a someone else's story rather than being placed into the story ourselves.

 

I split pretty evenly with male and female protagonists. Part of the reason I play as female PCs as much as I do is to help influence the gaming industry into creating more of them.

 

Matter of fact last time I played as a female PC was last night when I loaded up GTA Online and bought a new car, some new clothes, a new gun, and decided to just cruise around Lost Santos listening to radio stations I don't typically listen to. I even gave my GTA Online character a name and headcanon backstory to make her feel more in-universe and she's the only reason I go back to GTA V.

I almost always play male characters, though I eventually roll a female one if there's enough exclusive content (so e.g. the Solas romance in DAI).

[Battlebloodmage]

There is also a problem of social hung up for guys. I play Mortal Kombat 9 next to this kid, and I main Mileena, he asked why I keep choosing women and tell me to stop doing that. It's a fighting game, so it's not even a RPG where you play from the point of view of a woman. If you read posts on gamefaqs or the likes, they said it's gay or confused why a guy would play as a girl. It's just the culture of masculinity, like guys shouldn't cry or cry like a little ******. 

[The Elder King]

Probably Male in my first playthrough, Though it depends on the VA.

[Jeremiah12LGeek]

Otherkin.

[laudable11]

I'm a male and I usually play a female as my canon character. Usually. It depends on the voice actors.

[Felya87]

First run, always female. Is too rare for me find female protagonists I like and connect. I don't make self insert, but I usually go for the tomboy character with some stuff in common with me (short hair, comfy clothes, ethero).

Second run, usually another female character, but different (more feminine and vain).

 

BioWare's games are the only ones in wich I make male characters too, since usually the different romance options and story are a good input to create one. But those characters always came after the female run.

[PCThug]

Both.

[MaxQuartiroli]

As usual I'll play 3-4 females and 1 male.

[zambingo]

I don't know until I see the CC options and hear the voices.

[Rasande]

Female. Most likely a biotic called Naomi Notshepard who plays by nobody's rules, not even her own!

Never can seem to get into my male characters, only exception is DA:O mostly because the Morrigan romance was so epic.
