Male or female cat? Which one makes better pet?

I personally haven't seen much of a difference. I have a male cat who is very laid back and loves my mother more than anyone else, has to sleep against her at night. I've got two female sister cats, mine loves everyone and is very playful but doesn't like to be held, my sisters cat (sister of my cat.. wow this is confusing) loves being held and played with but doesn't actively seek attention like the other two. My girlfriend had to give her cat away a few years ago (before we started to hang out again after highschool) and apparently my landlord got him (our appartment is in the middle of nowhere with my landlord's work shed next to it so he keeps the cat there). He is a VERY social cat and will come up to you and climb all over you, lick you, drool and purr. So as far as gender I don't really think it makes a difference.
