Have a look through the thief screenshot-thread here. It might help you make up your mind.

Three out of 4 human thiefs I encounter are female with tier 3 cultural or Duelist armor with the biggest breast + smallest waist combo. So if you want to stand out, go male or female with a different armor.

Tier 3 is sexy, I don't have the cliche combo on my thief though ;D

I think T3 is also very fitting for a Thief. maybe not the underboob but thats some extra boner material for us. Also to those that will say ew your looking at a bunch of pixels. Porn is also pixels

If I saw a thief with the name 'Rouge' anything, I'd just groan and assume you mispelled Rogue like 90% of all MMO-players.

Lol? more like 90% of uneducates? * off I've only had two people ask me if I miss pelt rogue or meant Rouge.

Everyone knows rouge by the perfume anyway. Unless you've never talked to a girl which is understandable.

Female, t3 underboob is just too good to miss out on.

I'm going to go with blitz on this one, it's more like 90% of mmo players.
Most of them don't MESSAGE you about it of course - they just look at you, /facepalm, and move on.

Most everyone KNOWS the word 'rouge' but also most everyone has watched general chat for 6+ years and watched ROGUE misspelled at least 90% of the time.  So no, I'd guess most people just assume it's a dumb misspelling, not a deliberate name.

(BTW generally rouge is a category of cosmetic, not a perfume (it may well be a name of a specific perfume, sure).)

Okay... didn't see this one coming. At all. I wasn't trying to be rude or dismissive, so... yeah.

I'm just saying if I saw some random thief with Rouge in their name, right or wrong, I'd make the assumption. But whatever, lady, no one's telling you what you can or can't name your characters.

[Arquenya]

If you really want to stand out you could have made the biggest Norn male thief .. I don't think I have ever seen one!!

I think about 40% of all the thieves in GW2 are human females.

[The Shadow]

When you make a character who cares what people think of your name? It's about what you think of your name. So long as it floats your bout it should be fine.

I've got a Necro called Shadow Grasp.

I'm called "The Shadow" on these forums for Christ's sake.

Gimmicky? Oh yes.

Now watch me give 2 shits

Yeah, that pic is like, from first week of release Haven't been bothered to change it.

I opted for female Norn for my thief.  I wanted to make a male thief, but most of the armor looks strangely bulky.  On females, it looks tailored to their body shapes.  On males, it looks like too many layers.

I opted for Norn female because of the option to choose tattoos.  She's the smallest possible body size.

[Xephyr]

I was a human female thief up until lvl80, then I noticed theres literally no nice looking female leather armor, so I bought a makeover kit and changed to male. I love it way more!

I'm a female IRL btw.

Edit: Also I couldn't stand the fact that ALL daggers were clipping through my butt badly as a female character. lol!

[Cl1p]

If I hear 'Rouge' I think of a female character.

The 'named' armor series looks great on females btw.

[Tetan0]

found humans animation too wierd if you want female thief roll short Norn woman,

My choice goes to Male Charr Thief love additional thiefs from spells as charr they look soo badass.

[TGIFrisbie]

Something not mentioned in this thread, using Heartseeker spam to travel faster.  Male Human has a tendency to end a Heartseeker with an attack animation, Female is more fluid.  This can break your travel speed.  I only discovered this difference when I was considering having 2 thieves, my 80 and a new alt (Female and Male).

[GODh]

while reading your subject i thought "male" but then i noticed you saying it has to be human, so i have to switch my definitive answer to "female" (please be aware that other players will see your character too)

Because everything else is subpar. Can't go wrong with choosing the best.

Thieves' originality comes with how you dye those pieces. Going all-abyss is just lazy and wrong.

[Craywulf]

I went with a female Charr.
