I don't know why but I found your post very funny. Thank you for posting. XD

I chose a female originally for aesthetics. Although now I'm glad I did, the outfits seem better and I'm not sure if it's true but it seems like I'm a slightly smaller target.

Looks more like a robot (a very awesome one!) most of the time, running around in different kinds of heavy armor.

There can be a multitude for reasons for guys playing with girls:
... animations for skills or just for running (definately not a factor for Defiance! : O)
... not rarely the customization for female characters has more and better options
... gear or costumes sometimes look differently on different races and genders (eg. gas masks)
... male characters often can't be customized to look like a normally fit person who's neither on steroids nor a twink
... certain RPG aspects prevent class/gender combinations if you're into RPG in the first place
... many people do not or even don't want to identify themselves with their character
... squishy looking girls make awesome ironclad tanks with shields twice their size

I think covers all ... excluding the whole "looking at a girls back side" argument, since that one's just too obvious.

Oh come on, stop trying to be Mr. White Knight, there was nothing disrespectful said. Most girls I have known enjoy a nice compliment.

Some of that is game glitch too. I play side by side with my SO and our characters glitch out to a standard dude in like field camo...

It is called culling. Almost all games with very large PvE or PvP zergs have this in one form or another.
Placeholders are a rather good idea to work around it, although Trion could account for PC systems that can handle more data than a console.
GW2 had some major WvW issues with culling in the past for example. Iirc WAR as well.

I generally play males on the off-chance that there is RP in a game. I don't know enough about women to be one. :P
