FWIW I seem to play about half female characters (I'm male). I don't
really understand why people tend to play characters of the same sex
as themselves. Is it something about identifying with the character?
As for female characters and combat, the ones which come to mind use:
bow and arrow (twice), knife (twice), umbrella and a darning needle
(she's a sprite).
