Dude you can’t get a decent stealth bonus wearing come-fuck-me-boots no matter how hard you abuse the crafting system.
If a person plays as an opposite-gender character, it’s because they secretly wish to be that gender and are therefore trans.
If a person plays as a same-gender character, it’s because they like looking at same-gender ass and are therefore gay.
There are no other options.

If they somehow find a third option anyway, that just mean’s they’re a furry.
On the one hand, this is funny. On the other hand, this is exactly the kind of humor that led to me repressing my gender identity. I feel so conflicted.
That’s the neat part: you can’t repress your gender identity because ‘straight’ wasn’t an option!
(Unless you actually are straight, but whatever – it won’t kill us to be the ones who have to just fuckin’ deal with it, for once!)

(Seriously though, my intent was to be funny in an inclusive way, not a repressive way. Apologies if I missed the mark!)

No wonder when given the option, I have male heads on female bodies…
does it change anything if its a female head on a male body?
Reverse Furry. You are a real anthropomorphic animal, but you wish you were human.
Tomboys are the supreme being.
My character looks exactly like I do, though.
I usually play a female character, because if im going to stare at an ass for 120 hours, it might as well be a nice ass.
Exactly my philosophy. Also the whole “escape reality” bit. I also like RPGs where I can be an immortal skeleton or a lizard prince (ok, both of those examples were actually just Divinity: Original Sin 2).
if you find yourself playing games as an immortal skeleton or a lizard prince, you may not be entirely human. join my community and see if you relate to being a skeleton or lizard 😃
I just think they look better. Rather stare at something nice than fugly. The only time i play a male is when they have bad ass enough looking armor at low enough levels. Even then its prob an alt from all the gear I got on my female main since its not usable on her.
The gender is tied to the role for me. Male warrior, female assassin, male wizard, female ranger, male anyone with a gun, female thief.
Its about picking the gender that best fits the vibe of the character. The character is in mind their own person and also never represents me.
All this doesnt matter since I’m picking a warrior 99% of the time became i hate wizards and sneaky folk.
The floor and wall textures alone scream “this is NOT Skyrim!” but some asian MMORPG. FF14? Black Desert?
Why would I want to look at a dudes ass in third person for 120 hours?
Hey, we’re not here to judge. You can look at dude-ass to your heart’s content.
If they keep stacking em, I’ll keep packin, em.
I heard this several times and it confuses me a lot. Are you actually looking at the backside of the character instead of the rest of the game?
Depends on how much you have to dodge and how much your character is in your peripheral.
Honestly, confuses me as well. I’m all for playing whatever gender you want to, but looking at polygons in the shape of a human ass is… different for sure.
120 hours
Commander Shephard?
Ha yup that’s my go to when I think of it, but it applies to a lot of games. Shepaaaaaaard
It’s their favourite perspective in the citadel.
Don’t you romance dudes as a female character?
Only when it’s necessary for the plot
I don’t like ruining my 100% lesbian runs
Not always…
Forcing trans ideals on folks because of the character they play is one of the reason the cheeto bandito won… just stop it its toxic as fuck.
My wife plays as a male and I play as a female. When we were playing wow, random male characters would drop me 100gold at a time. This is when we were very early into wow and we just started getting silvers.
Star Wars Galaxies I would leave my character dancing in a cantina and come back to thousands of tips in credits.
I did the same. I normally wearing skimpy clothes. Unfortunately in WoW you have to be there to accept.
I’m a big, fat, hairy, cishet dude, and I always play as a woman when it’s an option. Female characters generally get more attention from the developers (for obvious reasons), so they usually have better designs and animations, resulting in an objectively higher-quality product. It’s also fun in multiplayer games because toxic dweebs hate it when they think they lost to a girl.
The same toxic dweebs might also go weird towards you sometimes, it’s definitely an experience getting to know why a lot of women carry pepper spray in public.

I was playing Monster Hunter World and made a character based on the Hub Lass.
It took less than two hours online to get someone asking if I have a boyfriend.
My little sister had to change her PSN username because men would keep messaging her out of the blue sending her their numbers and asking for nudes/snapchat.
funnily enough that’s exactly (but opposite) what i told myself before i realised i was a trans man
“oh i play exclusively male characters because they have better armour models and the animations look more immersive, and i prefer to hear a dude talk/groan when i’m in dialogue or get hit. no other reason haha”

- SMP Physics
- Bodyslide
- countless other risque mods
now we talkin’
I’m hardcore hetero on the Kinsey Scale, but I’ve always played females. Fuck it, I’ve been a male every day of my life and games are there to escape reality (for me anyway).
I make em look like me as much as possible because I want to be the badass lol.
Except final fantasy, I went with the exploding ponytail with the emo bangs because it reminds me of my first paladin on wow.
If you need a way to escape reality and you choose to be a girl, you might not be as male or hetero as you think, Just sayin…🥚 🏳️⚧️
You can keep saying it, but that doesn’t make it true. Trying to force someone to be trans is just as bad as trying to force someone to be straight shame on you.
I’m not forcing anyone to be trans. I’m encouraging them to see their signs for what they are. The whole forcing people to be trans is TERF bullshit based on the idea that we’re transing the kids.
Playing the opposite gender would knock me out of immersion much less than installing that many anime-ish mods.
I think that’s ffxiv.
Or someone modded skyrim to be ffxiv.
I was going to comment that this looks more like ffxiv than skyrim, and expose the boomer who made this meme that can’t tell the difference between two extremely popular games.
Although I’ve never played ffxiv so I don’t actually know if that’s what this is, and I didn’t play enough skyrim to be able to identify those wall/ground textures.
I’ve just come to the conclusion that my digital persona is a woman. I’m a cis hetero man in real life though. Not really any questions about it. But even in VR, I just exist as a lady.
Have you ever considered being a lady in real life?
I don’t think that’s an unreasonable question! But no, I have not. I’m very comfortable in my own body as it was given to me.
That’s reasonable, but not everyone has gender dysphoria. There are some people who are comfortable as they are but would be blissfully happy and euphoric as the opposite gender, without even knowing it.
That’s true.
