I don't know that it's sexism as much as it is knowing their audience. The vast majority of gamers are male. Unless it can pull the sexuality angle and only cover the bare minimum 5% of her body with "clothing" as some do, game designers know that most of the people who will be playing the game will be male, so usually the protagonist will be male as well.
