In case you don't know, I am a guy using a character I made as an avatar. I want to return to my true form, but what I want to know is if people like the gay friends that I have made will accept me. I used to yuri rp with people and I still want to, but i'm afraid of people saying no cuz i'm a guy. I really am a nice guy. Just reply and approve of the idea. If I get 3, then I will turn myself back into a guy and you will get to see the real me.

lol if they're used to you being a girl, even if you switch to a guy, people will forget to think of you as such (i know -.-)
i think it'll be fine. do whatever you want! don't depend upon other pople's opinion.

Most people don't really care about what gender your avatar is, actually. If anything, it's more of a personal preference. Lots of girls have male avis, and vice versa. If you want to clear up any confusion or something, a lot of people have a message in their signature saying what gender they are. ^^

I don't care enough either way to give an opinion.

I doubt people would care if you have a female or male avatar. I am technically a female and my friends on here know as they call me Yuko due to past Avi's, but most others assume I am a guy. I don't even bother to put I am a girl in my sig (mainly because I am more androgyny ways).

Gaia isn't real life and it is more of preference. I preferred this avi, so I kept it. I am not much of an RPer, but most people don't ask for your gender.

I've switched my avatar's gender like a dozen times. No one cares. confused

If you made friends, and told people that you were actually a girl, they might not be too impressed, but otherwise I wouldn't expect anyone to really give a ********.

If you were to lie about who you were under the avy, then yes, I can see a problem there. As long as you aren't doing that, then I don't see why it matters what gender your avatar is. It's not gay being a girl btw razz
