Oh well. If you like it, that's all that matters. Plus, personality > looks. In my books, anyway. Sadly people are otherwise

I think putting things down to gender is pretty narrow-minded and borderline sexist. I'd say it has more to do with age and demographics in general than gender. Most, if not all older members don't create many/any of the cute girl skins, regardless of their gender. Ultimately, you'd need to do site surveys to truly understand the demographics, but it's pretty obvious the majority of the site is young. Naturally, a lot of them make skins people their age can use. There are also young people who are very, very upset about teen skins. The site also seems to be largely male, at least in the mainstream community. That's much more anecdotal, though, so don't take that too seriously. Basically, though, if there are less women, which seems likely, there are naturally going to be less female skin creators overall and thus less creators of "original" skins.

A lot of the creators of the skins that are often called generic girl skins create a variety of skins of both genders. They often break the gender standards you brought up; Oftentimes male skins will have a bow or some stockings or something along those lines. A significant portion of those skinners are male, too. Like I said, I think it's more to do with age and the wider demographics than just gender.

Personally I think there'd be far less of a divide between the skins if people stopped making it into such a big deal. When the other parts of the community are largely making fun of, demeaning, or generally being a bit of a jerk to people who make teen skins, I can clearly see not wanting any part in that elitist community. Why try to appease people like that? I'd rather just keep making what I was making, even if it wasn't going to appease a group of people who take the creation of pixel avatars very seriously.

I do have to agree on the gender roles, though. It's far less socially acceptable for men to wear feminine things in mainstream society than the opposite. There's just less options for people who want to conform to social norms. Like I said though, a decent chunk of those skinners I know of do make male skins that break gender standards.

Yeah I know thats why there is accessory gap, I was just saying. And you have some decent points too.

Very True, actually. Now that you bring that up, Global Strike (a game I play) also has so many exclusive female characters. And it really is a fair trade. I mean the only game that I own that has a female protagonist is Alice In Wonderland, and it's forced to have a female protagonist because you know.... she's Alice xD. Thats 1 out of like 30 of the games I own (for Xbox 360), and I bet you the male ratio in the female:male would only get higher if I got more games. So yes, it really is a fair trade, good point.
