My husband nearly always plays female characters. They are smaller and harder to shoot 
He plays a lot of FPS type games 
lol “female dudes”? You mean male blood elves?
I play a lot of RPG/adventure typed games and while in theory it would be easier for me to play my own gender characters - but I feel more cool and connected to male characters.
In warcraft I have never had such issue because the player character really is gender neutral story wise and voiceacting keeps the same neutrality. The female player character is not more emotional vs. male ones and so on, as well in warcraft females and males both look stylised.
But for example I tried playing female in fallout 4, or Assassins Creed oddysey and it just … did not work. In one game female character is made sound such of drama queen and in other boobs wobble too much. And maybe that I like to look at males more than females. cough

The only time i’ve ever played a female character was back in TBC when our guild desperately needed a shaman for chain healing. I was raid leading back then and stupidly volunteered to put my rogue on the shelf for a while and level up this alt resto shaman. I couldn’t for the life of me face playing the male draenie with that little wiggle run they do…so it had to be a female

Never used ‘toon’ myself either, always ‘chars’
I think of my characters as avatars/family. Whatever way somebody wants to think of their characters then all good.
As to why we have ‘this or that’, that stems from living in a universe that operates from a dualistic system.
