Only times I've used a female character were on MH3 and MHFU, and that was because I had already played the games as a male character. That said, I don't care what gender I use, it doesn't affect the game whatsoever.

I'll be starting MH4U as a male, obviously, but I'll undoubtedly play as a female as well (see above). I'm definitely going to use the Insect Glaive, Dual Blades, and Switch Axe.
