Male Gamers of Reddit, why do you make your customer character female?

My husband does so for the same reason I do – free stuff, help, currency, so on – is fantastic.

I’ve been playing games as an actual woman for going on a decade and have dealt with very little abuse due to my sex. My husband has the same experience. I haven’t a clue what others are doing, but playing female characters is like playing the game on easy mode while being recognized as playing it on the same difficulty as those playing male characters.
