Got the idea of posting this when I watched this YouTube video that talks about reasons men love playing as girls.

Why do you do it?
Are there more than one reason?
What do you enjoy about it the most?

It's hard to explain more concretely than "I just like women more". In multiplayer (and actual roleplay) games (and even emojis in WhatsApp) I tend to play women as well and won't correct someone when they use "she/her".

Now that I read it here from a couple other people, I would also agree that the female options are usually more interesting and grounded in all aspects (Voice acting, looks, skills).

I don't think I'm an unhatched trans (learned that term in the comments here hah), because I really don't mind being a guy. But I also wouldn't mind if I had been born a woman?

Doesn't necessarily mean that you are trans but there is a term for what you described but it isn't a gender identity I think I think it is like an extra label that goes alongside with your gender as far as I understand.

Oh hey that was a short but interesting read. Not sure if that fits me, but I honestly don't care that much about the specific term/label. I am what I am and don't want to spend a lot of time just to try and fit all kinds of niche labels onto me, if that makes sense.
