I do that with my daughter too. She has a nintendo and everytime I pick the thing up she is already in the middle of a game so I just continue where she left off female avitar or not. The other day we were picking the avitar for the race car and I picked the female driver just for fun... without a second thought. It doesn't matter too me...actually the female character is kind of cute. I think my wife rolled her eyes though...and that's part of the fun...watching how other people react to a non-issue.
