I am a male and I don't like playing female toons. Just feels weird to me. But the argument of staring at the back of your toon, this game is primarily fps, just about the only third person is tower and vehicles, neither of which bug me much, not really standing still at all. Other games that are third person, like wow, I can see that argument, but if you're paying that much attention to your toon specifically, you aren't playing right brah.
