Why are most healers females?

Due to the current political climate and educational system of the last 50 years, it is unlikely you will get a reasonable answer to that. The closest to trying to reasonably answer that are those suggesting that it is due to inherent societal influences and their long term effects.

Even if you had legitimate statistical data to backup your question, asking that question is a red flag for many people. You cannot in today’s society point to any disparities between representation of the sexes or genders, other than to decry the proposed patriarchy.

: shrug : i think the first reply answered that, but obviously there are exceptions to the rule.

Personally I do all 3 roles because I like to flexible and be able to help out ppl in my guild regardless of role.

This pretty much sums it up

why does it matter?

Does ESO have a predominantly male player base? It seems about even to me and it's not uncommon for me to be the only male in many guild groups. Granted, I tend to do my of my grouping from my three trade guilds but even my small trials/dungeon guild is predominantly female.

That said, I do agree that there seem to be far more female healers and tanks than DPS.

Because on most trials, it is very passive and slightly easier job.

Easy to learn but hard to master.

Most males (For reasons I don't understand) want to take female players to trials even if they are slightly less capable players than male so it is easier to get them in as easier job.

This does not mean all female players are bad, I know one I grudgingly can admit is better than me in certain games, but most are casual. As are most players in general but casual males get ignored where as female players, even as casual get often raised to pedestal.

To say it is because female players are more compassionate.. You clearly have never competed against ones
