For me it really depends on the type of character I'm going to be playing. In the new World of Warcraft game I plan on being a night elf hunter and typically all the night elf hunters are females, so I am going to be a female although a dude in real life. Also, I can't envision some burly guy with huge muscles creeping around in the forest like I will be doing. Much easier with a small slender female character.
However when I make my second character, a druid, I will be smashing my way through every enemy I find and I will try and makethe biggest buffest character possible. If I'm going to pretend to be a race of purple nature worshippers why not go all the way and make my character perfect?
