I've elected to play a hyur mostly because male miqo'te aren't available. I played a mithra in XI and really loved it. As foxfirestorm mentioned, playing a mithra gave you a sort of ambiguity where you were eligible to get free stuff and twist people's arms into doing favors for you, all while still having your voice heard and respected. I also dig their "lithe athleticism and aloofness" as Lunavati put it.
As far as gender goes... I'll play a male if there's an option that isn't overly bulky. In WoW, my friends played alliance, and no such option was available. At first I played a male night elf balance druid anyway, and I did my best to always remain shapeshifted. Later, I played a human discipline priestess and never looked back.
This time around, I decided to play a male hyur midlander because it fits my spoiled brat of a character Nikolai best, and isn't too bulky. That said, if at any point male miqo'te become available as a playable race, I will drop everything to play one instead. >_>
