I (and many others) figured there would be more females playing this game.
In my opinion, there should be a 50/50 split of females and males in the Animal Crossing community. AC is fun and displays both masculine and feminine qualities.
As for my experience with males, I've noticed that when I do play with them, they tend to be less expressive with their emotions and they tease me a lot. (Bonking me with toy hammers, joking around, digging holes, blocking paths, etc.)
When I visit Club Tortimer, there are quite a few obnoxious boys asking random players to be their girlfriend or exchange FCs without even saying "hi" first. One of them kept following me with an axe and wouldn't stop attempting to swing it at me until I left the island last week.

Needless to say, it was a little bit creepy.
Other than that, I enjoy making new male friends on New Leaf just as much as I enjoy making new female friends.
