I just joined Byond as and made it very obvious I was a gay male, not even on purpose. It's amazingly liberating to be myself without having the FtM label dragging me down. Anyone else lead two lives on the internet :p?
I'm on a ps3 forum as just a typical dude, it's epiccc haha.
Oh and as for online games I don't play them as much as I used to but I've played as male in them for as long as I can remember.
I used to, but I started playing WoW with people I knew out-of-game, so I'm out as FTM with my guild. I actually like it a little better this way because it's a break from trying to pass. If my voice were passable in isolation (so I could talk on Vent without outing myself) then I might feel differently, but since it's not, I'd rather be semi-stealth in real life and out ingame than the other way round I suppose.
I don't play online games much anymore, unless xbox counts.
On xbox live I just sound like a boy whose voice is cracking so it's pretty obvious i'm a guy...

Same here. I play with two family members who don't know and when we get into guilds people call me 'she' and 'her', which is a lot more cringe worthy than it was 3 years ago. At least I was never treated like a woman, though.
You just reminded me I need to tell them, lol.
