Guys Being Girls

what is it with guys and their facination with playing as female characters in video games or online in general? sean and i are talking about how we play as girl characters on gunbound and the way that guys flirt with us. little do they know our true identities.

even back in the days of aol, i used to play as females online. and i was so surprised at the shere number of IMs that i'd get in every chat room. i had to keep notes to make sure i was acting like a girl to them.

with how often guys do this, its a wonder that guys aren't more skeptical about the girls that they meet online. especially when it comes to video games. i naturally assume that at best, at best, there would be maybe 10% of the online population to be female. and that 10% isn't very good. so if i ever see a "girl " that is any good, i naturally assume it's really a guy in disguise.

in the end, i think its a sort of role reversal that guys like to play. we have this idea of the ideal girl that we want. when we don't have that ideal or if we don't know one, we live out that fantasy and ideal. our girls are always flirty and easy. not that that is what guys want, but our lust and sexual nature wants that. also the idea that a girl is good at a video game is also extremely sexy.

i guess there is also the aspect of just decieving other people and making a joke out of it. when you and your friends know something and the other party doesn't. like when we first made our girl accounts in gunbound; i was laughing and pretending so hard that i actually started to suck. it's way to easy to trick guys.

in the end, it's really no surprise that guys like to play girl characters. look at the success of dead or alive. no one ever picks the male characters.

then again, it may only be an azn male thing. we have this homoerotic anti-machismo thing going on. it's a wonder that we're even attracted to girls at all. then again, it's a xzn azn male thing. we have a tendency to touch each other's butts. is it an out flow of our sexual security? or is it a deeper reflection of our true desires. it's especially odd since most of us who do this have girl friends. those that are not initiated to our rituals are either jealous or freaked out by our actions.
