Do you usually have main characters being the same sex/gender than you?

Just curious. As a woman I tend to instictively have a woman as a main character when exploring deeper stories. When writing fairy tales or more metaphorical stories it can be either way.

Edit: I would also find it interesting to know in which kind of genre you write

Edit: God, thank you so much for all of your wonderful responses. I loved reading your comments. It makes me want to create lots of different new characters.
