Is it normal to play as the opposite sex in videogames?
I am male and often play as females in games when I think that the guys look too cheesy (most of the time in my opinion...) In most RPGs and Open Worlds with custom characters I pick a girl character.
Another thing I am sort of ashamed of is that a huge selling point for me is a female protagonist. It really isn't because of sexual interest or anything like that, I just like playing as a cool/cute/whatever female protagonist.
