We all know about Minecraft's Steve by now, as the initial player character became so iconic and synonymous with the game. (Remember Minecraft Steve in Super Smash Bros Ultimate?!)
However, some people may be unaware of a second player character added long after its launch. That second character is Alex!
Alex is a female-displaying, fictional character you can choose to play as in addition to Steve.
You can choose to play as Alex via your Dressing Room on the main menu.
Alex and Steve (Minecraft)
Alex isn’t actually that different from Steve, other than a change in clothing and the fact Alex sports bright orange hair. There is little distinguishable difference in height or width pixel-wise, other than Alex has slightly slimmer arms compared to Steve.
With any and all character customization in Minecraft, there is no gameplay advantage or additional benefits gained from choosing Alex over Steve or any other skin, so it’s purely a cosmetic choice based on your preferences! And no, Steve isn't Alex's boyfriend for those wondering....they're different skins to choose from based on user preference so it's not just one option; Steve.

You can get females in Minecraft. You have a choice of two basic skins - Steve is "male" and Alex is "female". Plus you can download or create custom skins. As for NPC's they're all nondescript gender.
According to Lego Club Magazine, Steve and Alex are in a romantic relationship and have distinct interests outside of their shared aptitude for building: Steve has a penchant for mining and alchemy, whereas Alex prefers exploring and hunting.
