Default What determines what gender you choose for your characters?

I noticed a lot of people seem to have different reasons for why they pick a specific gender for their character(s). My question is, what determines the gender you pick?

Personally for me on p99, I play both male and female characters, in fact my favorites most recently have been female.

I feel as if I grew bored of seeing male character models, so started to create female characters and it's breathed new life into playing for me. I see the game differently now.

I definitely prefer my casters to be female, that much I now know. Males in the robes don't look as wizardly as the females, especially the humans. I really enjoy how my human female necro looks!

So I guess my reason is mostly for aesthetic purposes, why I choose a particular gender for a character.

The only drawback I have had playing my female toons is how every once in awhile some creepy dude sends some odd, off-the-wall lame attempt of a flirt. This happens way more than it should imo, too. Never realized how many creeps there was on P99 till I started playing female characters.
