Description

This is a bit of a pet peeve of mine. I've become spoiled by games that let you actually pick your gender, so when I run across games that let you customize everything BUT the gender, I get irritated.

Maybe I'd like to play a badass woman spy/soldier/superhuman goddammit D:
And yes, I understand that in the long run it's just easier for the developers to only have to worry about one voice/body type/reactions from NPCs, etc, but still.

Please tell me I'm not the only female gamer who feels this way.

Funny!

I must say I only halfway agree with your comic. On one hand I fully agree that there's still lots of games where you can only play as a male character. However all those have a fully "pre-designed" main character. I've never seen one where you can actually customize your main character to begin with, but not choose gender.
You should give Crusader Kings 2 a try BTW, go Cognatic Elective Succession and you can have your dynasty ruled by an unbroken chain of female monarchs.
