I have a female ava - and I was asked by several gamers about my gender, because some thought I was just a great fan of her - as a male.


Erm, what kind of name for a male is Kiya? Sounds pretty female to me. I'm not making fun of your name, I just don't see how it sounds masculine at all.

Maybe I am oldfashioned, but I don't like when man is using female avatar/nick and vise versae. This is my opinion <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />


I second that. It screws me over too. If you see someone with a female avatar and femalish name, what else are you supposed to assume?

If I used a female avatar and went by the name Courtney it would be my own fault for people thinking I was female, and vice versa if a female uses a male avatar and a malish sounding name.
