yes. that's why I plan to say OOCly that I'm under aged if I get into any situation.
Also, I think that the GAB or PD should back up this statement with a "respect it or die" outlook. But that's a differen't convorsation.

And I couldn't help but feel a little odd. I'm also sure it was not the best rp of my life. Anybody else had similar experiences?
I find it easy to play both sexes, in normal every day situations and in relationships that become "intimate". Knowing how to play the girls(although I'm not quite sure how well I do this, but in my opinion it is at least passable RP) is probably because I have lots of friends that are girls(wow, I get involved in a lot of drama there) and I live with women(mom and sis). Knowing how to play the guys is very easy. I am one. =D

All girl chars aren´t played by girls.
Maybe it is better to learn in RL.
That is a good point. I'm not sure how I forgot that, seeing as how it's the main way I learned.

I've played both and i just enjoy them for the characters they are. It wasn't easy roleplaying as a fella but it sure was entertaining. Some of the best laughs I ever had through characters was playing some of the male ones.
Although i have a sneeky feeling that some of my men came across a bit like this.

No one can make you feel inferior without your consent and Being happy doesn't mean everything is perfect. It means you have decided to look beyond the imperfections.

None of my male characters look like James Blunt!!!!!!! LMAO
I have several male characters and they all seem to have a tragic flaw of some sort whether it be an uncontrollable short temper, being a poor hunter/fighter, or that they are hopelessly in love with a sleeping character. I enjoy playing their flaws better than their strengths, maybe just because it gives them more depth to me. Most of my characters lack depth and are rather flat!!!
People do funny things in desperation...but sadly...all characters with a tragic flaw must die...they can never be the primary protagonist in any story. I not sure why that is...but every movie or story I have ever seen or read ends that way. You start liking a character and then BAM...tragic flaw...and I think...oh no...they're goner!!! I surprised my male characters have lived as long as they have...maybe its because they have a strong female behind them...lol
