I think there is a higher incidence of males using female icons.
But still, they are just icons! if you went by them then you'd think you were talking to cans o' worms, devils, and quite the menagerie of animals:D:D

Yeah, I also think that there are a lot more males using female icons than females using male icons.

Although my avitar does indeed have balls? I prefer to think of them as fashion accessories. :)

Regarding the number of females using male avitars? there may be more of it going on than anyone suspects. ;)

I'm female and prefer a female icon. Although there were not as many to choose from.
It does seem strange reading the threads and seeing a female icon then seeing a male name. Gotta remember it can be any sex behind that icon.

Fortunately when I forget which sex I am I can just feel. Yup, it's a mushroom.

<< Adul once used a male icon. >>



Yes. That was confusing. I believe that this was where the rumor started that she was really a he, which is totally untrue.
