I get that....but the most popular games are all male MC driven. ive yet to see a female protag game that has, even on this forum alone, go really big. ive met very few women who play these types of games and fewer still who play regular to the point of donations.
Lets play a round of Never have I ever:
Never have I ever played a
female protagonist game and thought of the MC as anything else than a pawn, a puppet to run into situations I want to see.

Do people try to identify with any protagonists ever? Giving the games, the themes, and the mostly really shoddy written characters, I tend to believe most just, you know, use the tools that are given with any game (as in the MC and options) to see what scenes they might want to see.
Now, if any game comes along that makes me pay attention to female things, reminds me to put on makeup and how the right way would be, and what dress goes along the best, then I would probably also think thats a bit too much for me as a male player. But until then im playing whoever/whatever to reach my goals in a game.
