i'm a 18 almost 19 male (i know mine chars in guild are female chars, some explain will follow and btw not all chars i have here are female)
i live in the netherlands and after vaction i go to university (that means i will get way less time to play)
i never played retail however i know the classes i play in pve, pvp not that good since never got explain how to pvp and on this server donator can be noob and beat skilled players anyway because they are just OP (you don't may say it on the server but who who would say this isn't -_-, btw i don't claim with this all donors are noobs, so if you donor don't go flame me -_-) but the point is it's hard to learn to pvp in BG and bugs make it even harder to learn by yourself. but enough that look like QQ (isn't btw, just some explain why i don't know that much about pvp)
mine favorite class is warrior i just like massive dps fury warriors do.
now about why i also use female chars. It start when i played maplestory there male and female chars did wear other armor and because there where way less female chars as male chars on the world i played on female armor was way cheaper and i started to make female chars to be abele to make more mesos (money there). But is was really funny to joking around with ppl this way and since then i did made male and female chars both just because it's funny.
