White human male has always been the most popular D&D character, only followed by white elf male, white half-elf male, white dwarf male, and white halfling male. Starting to see a pattern? The other strange races are simply niche, and have always been niche. I find that people who play them are also the people who constantly ask to play something out of the Monster Manual just to be different. Edge lords, the lot of them.
