I had a friend in high school whose big dream it was to sneak into Civil War reenactments dressed as a boy. She could have pulled it off, too.
For me, while I don't usually play fighters per se in LARP events, I _do_ play tomboys and I value being able to play them in an atmosphere that's supportive of that. If that went away, I'd be uninterested in continuing. But I think I'm an unusual example, because I'm odd about gender to begin with, and stubbornly so.
