I think the poster is not necessarily restricting his comment about guys using a female avatar but more so about the ones that put up a female's photo that they have 'lifted' from the internet or from their own private collection and Pretend to be a female. They do this in the hope that they will get more female friends and games with female players whilst being gifted clubs etc from male players.
There are many many profiles on here like that and it would be difficult for wgt to 'police' this type of fraudulent activity. I'm not sure if they are breaking any copyright laws by using the 'lifted' photo's but misrepresenting or impersonating another person is against the law in the UK.
Although it annoys me that guys would do this type of thing, one thought that crosses my mind that I find absolutely hilarious and that is : Do these guys think they are the only ones doing it? I picture two fat old guys sitting at their computers flirting with who they each believe is a female...... priceless sweetie!!!
