    Okay... are we talking gender or sex here?

    The question is gender... The poll options are biological sex.
    They're not the same thing.

    All guys, feels weird to play as a girl, I've done so before in some games (Tomb Raider, Final Fantasy, etc) but when given the choice I always choose to play as a guy, and I always make them look as much like me as I can manage when allowed to customize my appearance. It just helps me with immersion, trying to put myself in that world, when I can see someone that looks like me (at least vaguely) on my screen being a part of that world.

    Why not below level 10? Discrimination rears it's ugly head.

    Male Orc Templar, Ebonheart Pact, Xbox One NA, Agronak Gro-Galog, Level 43 (Highest level character I have ever created, even above the PC characters I created before transferring from PC NA to Xbox One NA through that limited time transfer offer back when console launch was happening.)
    Male Imperial Nightblade, Daggerfall Covenant, Xbox One NA, Tiberius Son Of Cyrodill, Level 8 (almost 9)-(yes I know you said doesn't include characters below level 10, but this is the character I am playing as the most.)

    Difficulty scaling is desperately needed. 9 years. 6 paid expansions. 25 DLCs. 41 game changing updates including A Realm Reborn-tier overhaul of the game including a permanent CP160 gear cap and ridiculous power creep thereafter. I'm sick and tired of hearing about Cadwell Silver&Gold as a "you think you do but you don't"-tier deflection to any criticism regarding the lack of overland difficulty in the game.

    Um, excuse me? It's not a generalization, it's a factual description of my experience playing games. I've thoroughly enjoyed many games playing as a female character, it was weird playing as a girl but still fun. It's just my preference to play as the same gender I am in real life, makes it easier to immerse myself in the character.

    Eight females, and one adorable male Khajiit.
    It took me a long time to get used to how awkward he seemed in the beginning, especially when running, but I love him now.

    Well as a woman, I made mostly females, however I do have certain ideas for males as well, so I ended up making Valerian Thracius, an awesome bow man that always wears a hood, mysterious af, because hoods are the best thing eveeeer ;___; <3<3<3
    I do like to roleplay of course, so maybe I have one character that represents how I am and the rest have different personalities etc. I like to go past the thing of "oh no I am a girl so I must make only girls or play only games where the OC is a girl" xD
    I like sweetrolls and I cannot lie

    Your misunderstood. It can't be a generalization because he's speaking only about his experience. It's not "all guys feel weird playing as a girl", but "[My characters are] all guys, feels weird [to me] to play as a girl".

    I started to make all my MMO characters female, because in every MMO I played male characters were super ugly. o:)

    They did quite well for the character customization for this game (aside from most of the hairstyle for male.. sheesh). Haven't ran into any character that is not good looking.. minus those vampires. Man, they creep me out.. just standing next to them all paled white, red eyes and vein streaking everywhere. I'm thinking don't jump on me anytime soon and try to take a bite.. I'm gonna shank you! Lol!
