Forced to be a girl by my daughter!

[Karren H]

Yesterday the wife and the daughter and one of her girlfriends was playing Buzz on their PS3.... I love that game... and I had my normal male profile.... but my daughter said that were playing an all girls match and I had change genders and pick out a female avatar.... of coarse my wife wasn't too happy but couldn't say anything.... I was smiling ear to ear...._ changed from a male super hero to the cheerleader! lol. We played a couple games and when we went home I left my avatar unchanged!... I did simply horrid but it was them most fun... the daughter kept making cracks on how cute I was.....

Maybe if my wife gets used to seeing my game avatar enfemme.... yeah right.... anyone else have females for their game avatars?

[BRANDYJ]

That was really cute of your daughter Karen. You might be right about your wife getting used to it. Or perhaps looking at gender as a non issue with your daughter and it may just get her to thinking...Hey, we can hope so!

I am not familiar with Buzz or ever played on a PS3, but I do have a female avatar on my computer game by Hoyle for playing card games and Casino play.

I have a female avatar on my XBox Kinect. Mine is the main user profile, but no one has ever questioned why it's my name with a female avatar.

Buzz is like a quiz game... like the one they play if you have ever eaten at Damons grill....

[bridget thronton]

Yes, my primary avatars in Second Life, Inworldz, and Unreal are female (and of course you can only play as Laura Croft in that series)

[Anne2345]

Back in the day, I was really into the unreal tournament series. I always used a female avatar online. And I crushed every dude unlucky enough to get in my way. ;-)

I am always a female character whe I play Heroes of Might & Magic. My SO rolls her eyes and tells me not to let my daughter see. Quite honestly it would be neat to be able to wear costumes like that. I kw my body was not meant for that, LOL.

[KarenCDFL]

Thats awesome!

I did the same on my Wii!

Hi every one
I always use a female avatar and play female characters in Dungeons and Dragons Online and Lord of the
Rings Online,though my one character that is a Dwarf well Dwarvs offer no gender choice they are apparently genderless
it is so much fun to portray femm in games.

When I played World of Warcraft I played with female characters almost exclusively. Once or twice I tried making male characters, but I never enjoyed it enough to level them beyond level 15 or so (which, for those who are blessed to not know, is very low). Similarly in games like Guitar Hero, where I always chose female avatars, etc.

Why shouldn't your daughter see that? Isn't that a positive message to send out to your daughter, that you as a man don't find it uncool to play as a female character?

darn the luck having to change genders for a bit. LOL

Well the first reason would be she does not know this portion of my life. Second I have tried and she has flat out told me it was creepy.

the daughter kept making cracks on how cute I was.....

I assume it was nice to get the compliments, but how do you respond without giving too much away?

Yeah.... giving it away to the daughter and keeping the wife from getting pissed off because I'm being too girlie! lol.. pretty mu h I just smiled... a lot!

Did you leave your brain in your other avatar? Or were you so busy looking at your legs in the cheerleader outfit you were slow answering?

I played 2 years online poker and learned that often guys underestimate females. 2 years, pretty good bluff i would say

[StephanieJ]

I usually select a female character on Guitar Hero. Just select "random rocker" until a female character appears...

I would kick ass as Vincent the super hero! Apparently being a perky cheerleader and answering correctly is much harder than I thought!

Or maybe she suspects?

Geeee I feel extremely fortunate in the respect to the AVATAR I occupy, I have done a one time trip to the moon Pandora and was able to be trans-telepathically-ported into my new AVATAR strangely similar to the one I used to occupy but this time the game is ON and NO I am not blue!
I remember watching the movie and thinking to my self, of how extreme this truly is, as though we live through a dream an adventurous epic fiction of distant worlds and wonders beyond imagination.



By the way Karren, your avatar pic is rather, how do I say it, ravishingly seductive fembulousness!

[Cynthia Anne]

Every game I play is a female avatar! In fact my computer is registerd to Cynthia! She's in to everything I do!

Karren, I disn't display an avatar, although I played Texas Hold'em as Rebecca Lynne. As Lorileah pointed out, females are often treated differently than their male competitors; specifically, we are underestimated and frequently hit on.

Won a lotta tournaments, but don't play anymore since the Fed's interfered with on-line gaming...

[Marleena]

Karren this was not what I expected at all!

Well it is good that your daughter complimented you on being a pretty girl though. It might open some doors later!

I don't play video games much but I always chose the girls on Streetfighter, I always did better as a girl (wonder why?lol).

I don't have a game avitar. I don't even know what a game avitar is.

[Silmaril]

I've used female avatars in numerous games, but my favorite has always been playing as Morrigan the succubus in Capcom's "Darkstalkers." Felicia the cat girl from the same game is a close second.

[TxKimberly]

Hey! If I were you, I would take what I could get. LOL
