False.. But they say it's not a big enough issue for them to do anything about it.

No, they're not the same, just similar. Even though this does give a minute advantage to players who choose to play as females and feminine men, it doesn't make any actual difference if you're good. I play as Dom Santiago and RAAM. I don't give 2 Sh*ts if my shoulder can be clipped slightly easier.

Yeah, they're false. It is confirmed that there are two different hitboxes. Which are most likely as listed below.
Normal:
Marcus Fenix
Dominic Santiago
Augustus Cole
Damon Baird
Cole Train
COG Gear
Dizzy Wallin
Jace Stratton
Clayton Carmine
Classic Marcus
Classic Dom
Classic Cole

Savage Grenadier
Miner
Beast Rider
Hunter
Theron Guard
Savage Theron Guard
Spotter
Flame Grenadier
Kantus
Sniper
Grenadier
Hunter Elite
Golden Miner
Golden Hunter
Savage Grenadier Elite
Savage Kantus
Theron Elite
General RAAM
Smaller:
Anya Stroud
Samantha Byrne
Civilian Anya
Bernie Mataki
Alicia Valera
Myrrah
Some people even believe that there may be a "Large" category, that consists of Theron Guard, Savage Theron Guard, Theron Elite, and General RAAM, though I don't think this is true. There was also some talk about Kantus being one of the characters with the smaller hitbox too, but I don't think it is.

**** Epic Knew What They Were doing when they did this, The Same thing is still happening in Halo Reach, You make yourself into a female and your arms and legs are skinny. Really if i see a person playing as female and there not A Female, It makes me think how far you would go for the sake of winning. If Your a man and Want a small hit Box Play As any Carmine/Kantus, don't resort to playing as a woman

am i the only one that thinks the hitboxes are the same, i went to Private matches and tested my self playing capture the leader, with the queen and prescott, my gun does the same damage from any range.
maybe its the lag which makes your gun sucks, maybe its the character size that doesnt make you focus.

Yes, the hitboxes are different. In a normal confrontation it won't make that much of a difference because their entire body is likely still exposed to you. However, female characters cannot be shot while behind cover unless you're at a high angle above them, while males can easily be shot from behind cover because their upper back and shoulders stick out over most of the "crouch cover" (IE: A road barricade or fallen cement block).

1) Maybe playing as a female is a nice break from the hundreds of hours I've spent playing as beefed up steroid abusers.
2) Battle Mistress medal.

No they are not the same and its separated in to 3 categories, Marcus/Drone = regular, Therons/RAAM = Big, Females = Small etc.
