So now that we're clear on things, let's backtrack and start asking why MEN do it. I can probably understand the girls now, but why the boys?
Many reasons. Everyone is different so it is impossible to say for sure. In my opinion it is because most of them are perverted, but that is not true for all men who use anime females as their avatar. As i stated before, too many reasons for someone doing something, it all depends on who they are, you cant find out who they truly are by an avatar, you have to know them. You can always make an educated guess, it might be right. It might be wrong.

I'm sure there's also nothing bad in asking, though. Asking is the only way you can know why. *Shrug*

If all of us give a little bit of something to a good cause, we can help to make that cause happen.
I use mine because it is my favorite hero from DotA, and matches my name. I just like the character. Although she is pretty hot. I'm so sorry for that pun.
Idk, there are some weird people on the internet. I personally don't mind it when guys have girl anime pictures, some girl characters in an anime are way more awesome than the guy characters of an anime.
I usually imagine people with anime pictures as females, when in reality, most of them are male. I think people should have pictures that match their gender, so you can easily tell if someones male or female. It just seems right. (It doesn't matter if it's an animal of the oposite gender, however. To me, atleast)

That just seems so ignorant of people.
Honestly. What's wrong with having an opposite gender avatar? It's just something they like. You upload your avatars because you like them, right? So why start a fuss with others...

Well I guess that the people who had started this topic were thinking the wrong way.
If that even made sense.

I use avatars I can relate to in some way, not only because I like it. So far it's the only one I found worth using.
because most guys on the internet are insanely unattractive people that cant get any girls, so instead they use fake ones
That can be said for any stereotype avatar. For example, your avatar shows that you don't give a damn about anything, suggesting that you must have low self-confidence issues with any arguments you must pertain to an argument since you will ignore the opposition in suggestion that you don't give. Or your avatar suggest you lack petty in others and only care about yourself, suggesting you are very ignorant and/or arrogant.
Stereotyping is not nice now is it? How about instead of judging people based on avatars, you simply just read what they got to say. Unless you don't give a damn.

Wrong.
I have a girlfriend, and she's the best thing that ever happened to me - that being said, not even her cares about what avatar I use. I mean, as long as it's not NSFW.
Wrong.
I gave a girlfriend, and she's the best thing that ever happened to me - that being said, not even her cares about what avatar I use. I mean, as long as it's not NSFW.
So, yeah. You're ignorant.
I never knew that there was a girlfriend donation service available.

I can agree with that.
I'm so sorry for that pun.
Actually I've had people accuse me of having a fetish for cats more than once.Cats.
That just seems so ignorant of people.

Too bad I'm stuck with my avatar only because I can't find cooler pictures of yoshis... ._.
I don't understand.
I don't think you do either.
Get over it.
That deserved to be made.
What about this one?
How does not having a girlfriend have anything to do with using a female as an avatar?

You know you could've just corrected me - without the unneeded statement.
