Majority of women, men swap gender in MMOs – Joystiq
A recent study called Gender Swapping and Socialising in Cyberspace revealed that 70 percent of women and 54 percent of men swap their genders when playing online games.
This is interesting because it doesn’t even remotely match the statistics from older worlds, where gender-swapping was done mostly by males — and to a far lesser degree. Interesting to speculate on why it might be different now. I presume that the study is based on WoW…
