I began playing video games when the original Atari VCS (2600) was released in 1977 when I was a 20-something.

I bought the original Playstation specifically to play Final Fantasy 7 with its brief crossdressing sequence that was required in one part of the game. I've primarily been a console gamer, but I did play the PC game Baldur's Gate, and there was a girdle in that game that would instantly change the character's gender if it was equipped, and once on, it couldn't be removed. I got a character editor that let me give that article to all the male members of my group. While it changed their appearance, their voices remained male, which was a bit disappointing, if amusing.

I liked the amount of character customization in Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion. I found that you could give your male character a fairly feminine-looking face, which I often did.
