This, definitely. It's also very disconcerting when a character's sex/gender remains not mentioned throughout most of a story and then suddenly they're male or female. I'd much prefer it if it remained ambiguous or was stated/described clearly at the start since my mental image of the character gets completely messed with otherwise.
- i saw sparks:
- I'm also beginning to hate female characters with traditionally male names, if only because I feel deceived when I get a good way into the story thinking it's a guy and realize that it's a girl
