I'm female and I tend to roleplay females. I don't think I'd be a very convincing male, honestly. XD
I actually have respect for the males who use female characters for trying it, or doing it very well.

as goes the second amendment, so go the rest
I'm a guy who roleplays guys 9/10 times xD I just can't seem to relate to female characters as easily as I can to male. Meep.

Well, I'm relatively new to roleplaying, so I generally stick to what I know: being a guy. However, I have begun making female characters and NPCs, and I can see myself being equally cool with both, or even tending towards the female side. I voted guy-for-guy, though.

We play the hands of cards life gives us. And the worst hands can make us the best players.
I'm Male and exclusively play as Male. I have nothing against women, but I'm not going to pretend I can think like one, or have any interest in doing so. Where women show up in my RPs you'll find they are only interacted with on a conversational level by the characters I am personally representing.
I'm a girl and, as expected, I usually play females. Out of 10 characters I have, only one is male.
As a Player I play males. But there should have been an option for those who are equally comfortable with both. 99% of the time I am a GM and so it is required. I suppose if I just played more often I would do more female PCs.
Personally, I think if you're a male who Roleplays females most of the time, you're weird. Vice versa too.
If you RP as a female once in a while, but you're a male IRL, it shows you're versatile.
I tend to play as male characters, as a guy, but I've written female roles in the past. I'm not sure how to articulate it fully, but I think it's easier to write a different gender role if you try not to obsess about it too much and just have a biography/background worked up for them. That's any character, really. The gender is just part of a much larger picture, and I figure that much of writing is to assume the role of someone else and their perspective to begin with, so a different gender shouldn't be as huge a hurdle as it gets made out to be.
