I have shamelessly lifted this link from the Movies and Machina Forum. It is a beautifully made movie about a recent Mr Virtual World competition.

I guess comments about the movie itself belong in that forum. However, I am curious if you ladies have an opinion of the competitors. Do you fancy any of them? All of them?
Go on. Name names.

From a gay boy perspective, I would have to say a vehement NO after a cursory viewing. Some of those "coin purse" sliders are outta control that it looks like they've stuffed a virtual pair of tube socks down their pants. I must admit that I couldn't really bear to watch the whole thing with the 70's porno soundtrack and some of those epilepsy inducing video edits. Was there a pageant interview portion for those lads lol? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WALIARHHLII

Some of the outfits are nice. I liked Mr Cayman Islands.
But when, dear lord, will guys realize that if you stretch your shoulders to Arnold-like proportions, you also need to make your arms longer? Good thing you don't need to go to the bathroom in SL - some of these guys could never reach their bottom. Kinda looks like T-rex with those stumpy little arms.
And, like Joshooah said, give the basket a rest. Looks like those guys are wearing adult diapers.

Couldn't watch it to the end, either.

In my opinion,
#1 Mr. Argentina - The AO he uses, skin, shape, hair and clothing are put together in such a way as to stop this girl's heart!
#2 Mr. Spain - Good walkout AO and altogether package is great.
#3 Mr. Australia -Winning combination of style and somehow an intelect pokes through.
#4 Mr. Mexico - Nicely put together and stunning national costume.
#5 Mr. Greece - Honorable mention because of the stunning armor. I'm not big on the huge physic.
Good job guys! *applause* That was fun!

I heard it called many things - but never intelect.

My votes would've gone to Mr. UK, Mr. US & Mr. Australia. :) If I'd known about it I would've like to have attended this event.

Most of them didn't inspire me, there's a lot of same-ness there, though the outfits were nice.

The two that - as someone who is interested in men's fashion - did look a lot better to me were Mr UK and especially Mr Argentina. The latter managed an effortless style and swagger and a very nice asymmetric outfit - well done, he would be my top placed model there.

My favorite was Mr. Cayman Islands, I liked all the national costumes.
Is Mr. France pregnant?

A lot of those men were definitly good enough for me ;) Some minor flaws like short arms, but if they could talk nice and be generally interesting, they could melt my heart.

But not Mr. Venezuela. He was... not appealing.

I always thought that the shoulder sliders weren't extreme enough for some men and thats why they make their heads smaller by comparison. To exaggerate the preportion.
Enough male avatars are out there like this that begs an honest question- Why do you think it is attractive? Is it the equivalent of thinking huge breasts on women are better? Or is it a comic book fan type of thing?
