Speak first think later moments

...well, I can't help but be sad with how I handled the question but also laugh at it to. I've never really been one to speak convulsively, I try to think about what I say. I suppose it seems tame without some context but it sounds a lot worse initially between me and my friend in the conversation. I'm just gonna post it below rather than explain it cause I'm not the best at describing stuff.

In person:
*I show my friend my character in sonic forces.*
She says "Why are you playing as a girl? Your not secretly trans are you?
I blurt out "No I just like looking at cute girls..."
She says "Wow..."
I say "Well, I just like looking at something that's cute when I'm playing the game."
She says "Fair enough."


Yaa... I suppose it is pretty tame but it still feels like I came off slightly like a perv saying it initially which kinda contrast the type of person I am of not being into that kinda stuff(being a perv).

I can totally see pet peeves in men playing as a girl in video games. Most of my friends has that when they played MHW and can't stand to watch streamers who plays a woman unless forced to

I'll be honest. I'll play as a woman in a game if the male character looks stupid. I can't stand that over muscular nonsense... Or if the female character offers traits or abilities unique to them that I look for in an in game character.

I honestly don't see what's so bad about admitting to a girl you are a pervert if your level of perversion is more watching cute characters rather than drive ice cream trucks... If anything, if you can turn that around and tell them you find them cute and would like to see more of them in a non-creepy way, they may even fall for you:P However, I never got why some guys play exclusively as females, I like watching cute characters, but if I can customize them (eg: Monster Hunter 1-XX), I'll always make a character that looks like me and so far the only time I've played with a female character was on Pokemon UM for personal reasons irrelevant to perversion.

@Hyborix3 it's not necessarily a pet peeve she had against. If you read the whole conversation she was just simply confused why a dude was playing as a girl
 
@ThoD ...? How can I be a perv towards a character if I don't care to see the intimate parts of anybody or anything in general...?
 
@jt_1258 Who said that perversion involves more intimate parts or anything? By your logic, foot fetishes and the like aren't perverted things:P Also, let's admit it, most guys that play as girls only play so they can have a look at the big ass or chest of the character and that goes twice considering how often things like "thicc" is thrown around among other things when such things are involved...
 
Think first, act never. The story of introverts.
Story of my life.
I probably think too much ahead.

edit:
I can understand why she looked at you that way, but there's nothing wrong in what you said. that's just her which has wrong thoughts and putting her thoughts on your words.
You said it without bad thoughts, you have nothing to feel bad about.
nothing wrong playing a girl, or else no guy would play tomb raider? Horizon ? Metroid ? etc.
it's not "impersonating" or "faking who you are or repress your genre" it's just a fucking pixel on a tv...

I often play as girl characters in MMOs and other 3rd person games. If I'm going to be looking at someone's butt all day I'd much rather it be a girl.

@The Real Jdbye And that's perfectly fine, that's what I'm trying to get at, admit that's why you really do it instead of just making excuses like others do!
