This is a weirder thing than guys who always choose the female option because they "don't wanna look at a man's ass"

I have a male gaming buddy whose account is named like tim2299. He names his characters Tim, they're always male and if possible, the toon's facial features resemble his real-life looks.
I don't get it.
There are two versions! One of them is this one, which you can play if you're cool or even mildly tolerant. The other one is fucking right off and crying inside your own asshole
What do you people expect from Twitter?
I know, the post with whopping 11 likes is extremely important and this whole thread is absolutely not just a rage bait.
I don't mind playing a male but always prefer female. Started with Unreal 99 and smaller female hitboxes then continued in mass effect (if I can choose to watch a spandex gluteus Maximus for 30 Hours, I chose female).... and now it's a habit of playing female and chaotic neutral for first playthroughs.
The fact that such comments still get any traction is sad. Like come on guys, what an ass, with nothing to add! How is this in my all feed?
If I play RPGs and have the choice of a character, I always pick male and customise him to look like me. Despite never seeing my character when I play in first person mode. It just seens natural to me.
But when I don't get the choice (mainly narrative driven games like adventures), I simply roll with it. It's a game after all, not a second life.
"I can only see women as objects, not as people, so I cant handle playing as one without risking trying to sexualize myself like I sexualize women. "
And it's not the competent, powerful and attractive part that breaks your immersion?
Or he is just pissed that he won't be having women in game to romance.
We need more female only games, purely so the chuds will start agreeing with us that every game needs gender select.
