1. Do you have a preference for your avatar gender and if so what is it and why and does it match your RL gender? Just answer as much of this question as you prefer.

Yes, I Have mostly Female avatars as sites normally have more of a variety of things for females then males, as well as I find it simpler to get the look I want with female avatars with the only exception being cosplay. I only have two places where I have constant male avatars, one because it cost stupid amounts of money to change your gender and the other I find the male avatars more interesting to dress.


2. Do you have perception issues with gender identification in that if you are looking at a obviously male avatar you think you are talking to a male person and same with female? Or do you have a neutral perception?

Mostly I have that issue with usernames. if is says SparkleMagic45 I auto think its a girl.


3. Do you like to know the gender of the person you talk to online, for example here at Trisphee, or do you just not care about it?

It helps with what to address the person with, though I'm not one to care or judge on anything like that. I honestly don't care if people call me a guy/him/he as Hiei is a male name and when I cosplay or have a male avatar that compounds the problem of persepsion.
