I often play female alts, and I have to say, while I've only been hit on once, the sheer joy of informing him that I was male in whisper and getting his horrified reaction completely made up for it.

I highly recommend this strategy, and see no reason why only men should do it. Women, if you get hit on in WoW, whisper them that you're male. It works.

That's why my Warlock is a BE female - close to death skinny and pale like a Canadian arse in winter.

See my post further down - it should have appeared here as a comment about body building warlocks, not about being hit on - sry

I first started playing because a friend wanted to try an MMO. Her first multi-player game. Took about a week for her to get hit on, but by then she was confident in the game. Did a yell in SW, "[Name] just hit on a black sixty-four year old grandmother of seven!" It was true and boy did that guy log quickly when the laughter came rolling in. Still my favorite WoW moment by miles.

It's not that they look like body builders... take a closer look at their faces. All the human males look like they have been tortured since birth.

Maybe they need a good multivitamin?

I think you once told me this: "Because of all the fire and destruction in Azeroth the locals are paranoid and make scrolls out of steel and lead".
