I have to agree. My male friend has had this pic of a girl as his steam pic for ages, used to also be his facebook pic and xbox dash background. I asked him why and he just said something stupid like 'but she's freakin' hot!'
I get it, you like to look at things that appeal to you, everyone does. But putting it as your profile pic for things is confusing and annoying. I nearly put a pic of myself as my steam pic once but then I realised people might still think I was one of those annoying dudes, and I don't know anyone whos steam pic is of them anyway so I figured it was sort of this unspoken thing that you're meant to choose something else instead, haha.
Part of me thinks there should be an option to specify your gender on your profile in order to avoid this kind of confusion, but at the same time I like the implied equality of not having to state such a thing.

Sure, you COULD do that, but most people wouldn't. Most males who have a chick as their pic don't do it because they want people to think they're female, what do they have to gain from that? Most people do it because they just like the pic, think it's cool or hot or whatever. It's not "stoopid", it's a clarification tool. If it was a useless idea then lots of other sites and forums that require you to make a profile wouldn't allow you to specify your gender either.

"HI GURL OH YOU ARE SO BEAUTIFUL LETS BE FRIENDS, I LOVE YOU, YOU ARE SO NICE, LETS TALK MORE OFTEN, CAN YOU SEND ME MORE OF YOUR PHOTOS"
"oh wait, you are just a guy? **** retarded ** you ** , deleting from friends, bye!!"
People who think in this way should have no internet access.
And it's sad how many people treat girls like they were saint. "you <girl_name> is the only reason this group is still alive!" (girl rarely even talk on that chat) etc. Guys loosing their minds over random girls are pathetic.

This, this, this! There are less things I am more allergic to than guys who go all drool mode over some random girl solely based on her gender and the fact that she plays games. There are few people who can compete with that level of idiocy.

maybe you should, instead of assuming the person is a pretty chick, and only talking to them because of that...
you realize youre on a gaming app...not a dating website...and that maybe the dude just htought the chick in the pic was hot..
you fucking loser...go outside and find some pussy in person...

I pretend to be a girl so people gift me games and TF2 items.

I think they do. (Beautiful) Girls enjoy the world (internet) of males bowing before them and humiliating themselves... And the worst thing is that it's normal accepted behaviour.
On the other hand I would agree that there are more male users with female avatars than girls with avatars of themselves...

Nah. It's really not fun to get millions of friend requests a day, or to be in the middle of a game and people beg you nonstop for more pics or something else stupid.

Great topic OP, i hate it when i talk on mic and all the girls are like "omg a guy!!!1'" I'm a gamer too, please don't just play with me because i have a wiener, you stupid girls. I just feel so oppressed. I'm glad there are support threads like this one to help me get through girls treating me like i'm some piece of meat in online video game matches.
I remember i was once told in a TF2 game to go back to the garage, munch on a bunch of pussies and keep assembling IKEA furniture >_< Girls are really immature. Why can't they just add me, buy me games, buy me TF2 hats, and SHUT THE FUK UP, i don't want any special treatment

Please stop doing it! Stealing pictures from Facebook, what a lows. I had a friend on Steam who I though was a pretty girl but then he changed a picture to a totally different girl, what a fucking dimwit. You have no shame!
