I only play as a girl character if I get the chance, but if I have too, I play as a guy character I truely like (i.e gears of war=Baird or Dom. Left 4 dead= Zoey or Francis, Rochelle or Ellis)
to be frank because I like staring a girl (pervy right?) then staring at a guy its just more natural
Both MMO's and RPG's take time.. .Alot of it... Put together both genres every game i played of those is really al lot of time...
Mos of them have grind fests...
If i have to sit through grindfests, i might as well look at tits and femenine legs/ass then some dude casting spell/shooting bow/ choping enemies to bits in homo-erotic series of combo moves.
EDIT: I am a guy

Well usually I play as the character I find looks best. Or in the case of undead in wow, looks less like crap.
However I have also had it ingrained into me that it is advantageous to pick a girl.
Elder scrolls dagger fall.
Seducers could stunlock male characters. Not female ones. Lead to a horrible npe.
fallout 1/2
female characters could pimp themselves out for early money. Also at least one character lets you pass by if your female (possibly with enough charisma) Oh and a hilarious talk with a midget in new reno, as a female.
left 4 dead
In a see of grey Zoey is a bright red spot. Makes it a little easier to spot in frantic moments. Also she is funny.
Few other games have such gender bias in them.
Heard best armor in Demon's souls has no female equivalent.

I usually make a girl because I've got my own character that's one, and it's fun to see how she looks with different engines and settings. While not surprisingly enough, GH makes her look like a tramp, thanks a bunch Activision. On a similar note, it allows me to try and get every story possible in the ME series.
If the game has dialogue, I'll pick whichever one sounds the best.
Other than that I tend to not care unless it has some impact on gameplay. (I tend to pick female characters in fighting games as I can identify better with speedy characters than hulking behemoths, and any quick male characters in fighting games are, to quote Yahtzee, hooting dickholes, some examples being Maxi/Raphael from Soul Calibur)

I generally make male characters as a sort of in-game me, but there are three reasons I've made female characters in the past.
1) To get a game achievement (I'm looking at you, Dragon Age).
2) To explore everything the story has to offer (I'm looking at you again, Dragon Age). Someone worked hard on the writing, it'd be wrong not to experience all of it.
3) The female avatar options better fit my character concept. For example, when I made an elementalist in Guild Wars I wanted an avatar that fit how I pictured a pyromancer to be: a powerful, arrogant, confident spellcaster. All of the male avatar options either looked like they belonged in a boy band (doesn't fit the powerful, confident qualifications) or they looked like scarred, battle-hardened individuals (doesn't fit the spellcaster qualification because no self-respecting pyromancer lets the enemy get close enough to give him scars).

Why not?
If you want more detail, then: It's interesting to stretch my mental horizons and try to perceive things from the other side of the fence. Women can be more ineffable than God sometimes, and trying to enter the mindset of either fascinates me. In short, I associate transgender roleplay with a strange, nerdy form of apotheosis.

I think chicks play as dudes so they fit in and don't get hit on all the time or something. Dudes playing as chicks on the other hand... they seem to be doing that in real life as well lately... it's probably transferring over from RPGs to RL (wow I can't believe I actually used that acronym for once).
OR.. or, the dudes wan't to scam male characters by creating a false emotional bond between the two and then exploit that bond for items and/or currency. Thats my theory anyway.
