The Fake Female Avatar Phenomenon

A phenomenon in which over 75% of female avatars online or in games are men just pretending to be women to get attention.

I used to take advantage of the Fake Female Avatar Phenomenon when pretending to be a female orc on World of Warcraft. Desperate guys would give me gold and help me pay for college because of the stories I'd feed them.
