I am a man and if I have the choice to play as a man or a woman in a game I will always choose a woman. Why? Cause I like women better. That's as far as this goes and I never gave it more thoughts than that. It's your character and you do what you want with it. Most people won't care and the few idiots who are going to lose some sleep over it deserve a bad night's rest. Do yourself, don't mind them.
