If it's a long haired, I tend to prefer females, just because I absolutely adore how puffy they look. I don't tend to be all that big on the skirts, although I have slowly learned to love them. X3 Personality wise, however, I am pretty alright with any. I have had many different personalities on both genders, from eternally rowdy and fierce Shippo (a male) to very calm, sweet and collected Luna (female). All in all, I love both, and would not hesitate on gender to have my pick. XD
