I will almost always play a female character in RPGs, because I find female characters to be much easier to write. (This probably has something to do with the fact that I'm a girl, but... However, there is a glut of female characters, making it hard to play a unique character.)
But I simply hate half-elven, orphaned shield-maidens. *gags* Not only because of the extreme immprobability of these characters ever living in ME, and the cliche, but because I actually find them hard to write, because of their jumbled pasts.
