Was this a poll of RPers or players in general?
Most MMOs I've played, I've done so as a non-RPer and guys playing chicks are everywhere so I could definitely believe this.
As a male, I would find it both awkward and difficult to play a female character. I really like to get into the head of the characters I play and I just don't think I could do that with another gender. I can't even do that with a tall character because I'm short IRL, so another gender is completely out of the question for me.
Not to say others shouldn't. It takes a lot of skill to switch genders in RP and make it believable.
