I don't like shopping for clothes.

But people keep telling me they need to take me shopping.. I'm only a year and a half old, I have decent skin and shoes and AO so I don't walk like my chicken-cousin alt. But I just don't like buying mens clothes and I enjoy my 2 pairs of pants and sweater.

Makes me almost wonder if it would be more fun to shop for a girl? Is that what you guys do, build your cartoon dreamgirl? Cuz for some reason mine would need stockings, some sort of plaid and crazy boots, if that's the case.. maybe a tail.. LOL

Then again, do I care what people think of my librarian appearance? I like SL for the fact that I never have to wash that old gray sweater I wear everyday. And it seems silly to just go buy another tattoo.. I can't do that with my RL ones, so why would I make my plastic av do it?

Maybe you can hand out nose clothespins to anyone who wants to take you shopping?

I heartily agree !

Shopping is a pain in RL, but is necessary cos you need things.

In SL there is nothing you really need once you have sorted out your avy, so why shop

It could be that they notice you don't change your looks much, or it *might* be a hint that they think you need a full makeover. Who knows..
Yes, shopping is always more fun when you have more to choose from :)

Dope. If a girl wants to make you over it's generally because she likes you. Go shopping, fool!

Hey! Welcome to the club, resistance isn't always futile, trust me. I haven't worn shoes for weeks now.

I didn't used to give a damn about clothes, then I got this avatar and it dragged me out to clothing stores demanding an outfit with style and poise worthy of its classical good looks. It even drove me to acquire my first AO. Now look at me...

Some men like to shop for clothes and try different looks, all without being gay or metro-sexual. Don't lump us all into the hopeless and unfashionable category.

You could try buying clothes for certain activities in SL. Do you have swim trunks? Most guys don't. When I take people sailing or surfing I always run into that.

Why get trunks when you can actually look good in speedos?

On the contrary, Lindal. She doesn't like *you*, she likes what she thinks she could change you into. That's the best possible reason to end the relationship.

Why must every guy run everything he thinks or does through the "will this make me look gay" filter? Wouldn't it be a much better, more productive world if guys could just let go of these homophobic hangups?

Cute. But how does this constitute a logical or even coherent response to Katheryne's (VERY well-taken) point?

Have you *seen* what a lot of women are wearing these days? Trust me, there is no filter going on! :p

Which SEEMS to essentially translate as a very popular child's taunt:

"I am rubber, and you are glue. What you say bounces off me, and sticks to you!"
