I always make a male and female character and give them the same name from my other games if possible (I gave them personality/backstories in my head, dont ask). And sometimes I make multiple characters from different classes, species, races, skin colors etc. and if I feel creative, their back story/bio. Helps if one is a creative person that likes to write stories.

One exception: If I'm playing as a dwarf, he has to be male and have a great beard. Otherwise, what's the point? Unless lady dwarfs have beards in this setting, then I'm doing that.

My favorite variant of this is that if you pick a dwarf in the Lord of the Rings MMO, there's no gender option, since they all have beards and look the same

It's this way in discworld too, at first

"Are you a guy or a girl?"

"Dwarf."

"No, no, I mean, what do you prefer?"

"Mining."

"No, I mean, what's in your pants?"

"A pickaxe."

The regular dwarfs actually do have the option, but clicking it doesnt change anything. Which is even funnier.

I just got two little Christmas gnomes. The man has a beard and the woman has long pigtails braided together to look like a beard
