I usually always play a female. (I'm male) On Rift I made the sexiest character I could because I enjoy it. I never hit on people for fun/free stuff, and I hardly talk to other people anyway. There's nothing that annoys me more than when I'm in a guild, get invited to their Ventrillo, and there's always that ONE girl (irl) who either sings for attention, flirts with 5 different guys, and then acts like she's "the shit." I never talk in vent and only use it for in-game stuff, strategy. Everyone else talks about stupid annoying junk and I think it makes them feel cool. Any time someone does party with me, they eventually ask if I'm really a girl. I don't understand why it matters since I never show "interest in dating them."

I'll just assume all these people are 13-16 year old and try not to let it bother me.
