My Nord female ranger is lisbian but will not getting married. She is a loner, mainly wandering in the wilderness, but she sometimes enjoy the delicate touch of another soft skin on hers ...
She is not very fond of men in general, amazon-like woman.
I play a female character because I just find it more interesting ... and because there is already many games where we are "obliged" to play a male main character (The Witcher, Assassin's Creed, Dark Messiah, Thief, etc...)
And ...
I've always played female characters if it's possible. Not sure why.. more pleasant to look at. I like the fact that women usually look more stealthy and dexterous in games and I like to play stealthy characters.

A few months back there was a poll that asked both whether you preferred playing in first or third person and whether you planned to play a male or female character. After a rather large sample of respondents, there was a striking correlation between the number of male characters with first person players and female characters with the number of third person players.
That's natural, you can't change a (hetero or bi) man's mind. Nonetheless I'll play first person, as a true TES game deserve to be.
