As we used to say, "MMORPG means Many Men Online Role-playing Girls".
Which has went in a couple different directions, looking back.

Ah, the Internet. A place where the men are men, the women are men, and the children are FBI agents.
And the moderators have beards. Women too
GIRL is also an acronym for Guy In Real Life.
There are no girls on the internet
The Internet: Where men are men, women are men and the children are FBI agents.
We've always been trans-inclusive.
I genuinely wonder whether generation of people who played female avatars in MMOs to get free stuff has put the seed of TERFdom and assorted other anti-trans stereotypes into a generation of people's brains.

On the internet, anyone who claims to be a woman is really a man. Anyone who claims to be a man is really a child. Anyone who claims to be a child is really an FBI agent.

I'm just gonna leave this here in case it changes somebody's life: https://medium.com/the-identity-current/plight-of-the-transbian-4ab1a048b09b
This was a sweet, wonderful read, thank you
I am a happily being a guy but I identified with Samuel in that story more than I ever would have guessed would have been possible. I have always been jealous of how easy it is for women to make friends and how tender their friendship are. I have never gotten along with macho guys and multiple times in my life people thought I was gay (I am only attracted to women, I just want tender friendships like women have with each other)...
How did it end? Did they date then?
yes and they're lesbians now
Eventually they'll both think a little more deeply about why they """pretended""" to be girls online. 🤔 😊
There's a reason transbian is a word
Any transbian places to recommend?
my place? 😏
Yes Please 😊 💖 !
Name checks out
Pretending to be a girl for free handouts in MMOs was peak metagaming.
I had a friend get a fucking voice changer just to keep the lies going when he did that in D&Donline. It still irritates me that it actually worked. Dude was rolling in gifts and invites.

There are a few reasons I can think off:
- Trick people;
- Get items;
- ~~egg~~ Experimenting the thought of not being your current gender.
But just like the anon described, it's one of the first two.

I feel like there are so many dudes who'd fall in love if only both parties were women, and that's beautiful...
Why is that beautiful? Sounds pretty obvious to me. If some of my dude friends were actually women, I'd love to be in a relationship with them. They're cool dudes.
