Got the idea of posting this when I watched this YouTube video that talks about reasons men love playing as girls.

Why do you do it?
Are there more than one reason?
What do you enjoy about it the most?

When the game allowed, I make my character to look like my then-gf (now my wife), and named it after her. Idk, I think she's cute and I would like to see her more.

Funny thing is I've never told her this and she have no idea why I always alt-tab out of my game when she walked by (she knows I'm not playing something that would upset her like a porn games or something like that because she can see what I'm playing from afar. She just can't see the character'name or details from that distance).
