I think it doesn't matter, male or female, as long as we have a developed character, which is a rare thing today. Most of them are lifeless and stereotypical, and this alone often ruins the experience. You just don't care for them.
But yes, there are many female protagonists nowdays compared to the 20th century. You may call it a result of women emancipation. Though many of them are made with men in mind. It sure helps the sales. If you look at most of them closely, you'll see April Ryan..

I always thought of Brandon from Kyrandia series as a gay.
