Playing as a male character: Man, what a mensch, that was so nice of them

Playing as a female character: Oh jesus, it's some nerd who thinks I'm a girl and this is some weird sex thing isn't it

    The best part if anyone talks to you at all there's always one guy who gets mad at you for 'getting special attention for being a girl' like bruh I'm just standing here.

    Or my favourite, when you start trying to communicate with other players (you know, the point of an online game) and one of them gets annoyed at you for being an attention-seeking feeeemale.

    It's like women existing at all pisses these people off.

    Thats why I play as a male character a lot of the time because:

    1.Easier to present as androgynous and get me some gender euphoria

    2.People just treat you normal.

      I'd take the abuse just for the slightest bit of validation tbh
      ...but that probably just speaks to my unhealthy mental state.
