Why do Girls always seen to play as Female Characters in Games?

[superchunk]

I 'normallly' play as

- diddy kong or yoshi in MKWii.
- Link in SSBB.
- Scorpion/Subzero in MK1
- Meleena in MK2
- Scorpion/Subzero in MK3

Basically sex is not why I choose someone. However, if I were creating a charater in some MMO game, it would probably be either a massively robust male or a hot female. More than likely a hot female.
