I think another way to kinda of put this into perspective too (even though I haven't played a lot of male characters in a while), is that their writing can be more simplistic. Like Odd was saying, obviously you can have an emotionally complex male, but the way you describe his emotions makes it different. When writing my feminine characters there's lots of flowery poetry and metaphors, where when it comes to my male roles I can be much more direct. Before December was at all emotional; her posts were more masculine in the sense that she is very to the point in her opinions, her emotions are blatantly there, but she doesn't dwell on them as a "typical" woman would do. IT gets so hard once you get really in depth into it, but honestly the best way I can describe it is being more simplistic in your phrasing when writing your character, and that in itself can speak volume.
