Writers: do you normally write female or male characters??
Recently I realized that, as a girl, most of my characters are usually boys. That let me to question why I was doing that, and I think it's because it kinda gives me a sense of freedom. Like, as a writer, I'm intrigued to explore different perspectives and worlds I wouldn't be able to in real life, so I guess writing male characters is kind of my "what would it be like being a boy?". So now, out of curiosity I want to see if this happens to any of you or you just like to write from what you know.
Also, please join my other ongoing poll if you haven't voted yet!!
If anyone would like to share more about their characters, I'd be very happy to know.
Happy writing :)

i am nb and it depends
i tend to create mostly female or fem presenting ocs
while fixating and writing and thinking a lot about male or masc presenting characters in media
but also tending to project on them and adding some typically fem traits to them
or straight up making them trans
and then nonbinary characters end up being pretty much self inserts often
i have to work on that
