Exhibitionism is a well-known character trait; some people enjoy being sexually admired. In RL, the wish to do this is usually tempered by the threat of various consequences, both legal and social; you could end up in jail, beaten and/or raped by people who got the wrong idea about your intentions, or socially ostracized.

In Second Life, the consequences are lessened. You won't be jailed (though you could be banned from specific land parcels, and if you are an egregious violator of PG areas, especially important ones like the Welcome Areas, you could be suspended by LL). You can't be assaulted in a serious way; the worst that can happen (unless you consent) is that you can get shoved by a push weapon (assuming the land even allows that) or bumped around by other avatars. Social ostracism remains a real danger, but if it gets too bad you can just abandon your avatar and come back as somebody else.

As a result, some people choose to try out a more exhibitionist self in Second Life. Some give it up. Some find appropriate venues to practice their exhibitionism; there are many places in SL where public nudity and sexual behavior are welcome and even encouraged. Some don't do either of those things, and end up being a nuisance.

Well said.

Now, I am not in just nipple clamps but I am fairly scantily dressed in SL this very moment. I am going shopping. HA! Check out my catmonkeygirl bum!

(Note for the literal minded: The above is factually correct but tongue in cheek. Make what you will of that!)

Yeah but he's right foehn ... on this one, he's spot on.

Might get shouted at but ... yeah. I'm not any great shakes in the looks department but apparently I stand unchallenged in terms of delightful wickedness!

I dress as casual as I do in RL - I usually wear some skate trainers, skinny jeans and a ramones T-shirt.

Yesterday I was at a surfing beach looking for waves and a bloke started having a go at me "Jeez, what a state" "you could at least put some effort in, like this girl"
(the girl he was talking talking to had the group tag "sexy stripper" and was wearing a see through top and a tiny skirt - now this girl's clothes were not my taste at all, but I wouldn't proclaim that in front of a beach full of people).

I like my causal skater style - I don't come into SL to "be whoever I want to be" I already live my RL this way - my SL avatar is just a reflection of my RL self and people shouldn't be so damn rude!

Live and let live - in RL and SL.

Oh! I'm not saying he isn't right,
I agree, just that guys can be just as pretty and pretty boring too.

Not as boring as ones who think that "A dumb FORK is a good FORK" (PG version).

Very true foehn, re "pretty boys". Very very true. Even worse still are the ones who THINK they are gorgeous and they are not ... in personality, looks, anything :)

Yeah this is aimed at someone specific :D

Of course, some are relatively pretty and have still got it going OWWWWWN <cue chikka chikka bow wow>

@ Scarlett. Good for you!!! Be you if that's what you want! YAY!

Practise a little tolerance
02-15-2008 06:25
Please, don't make statements like that (whorebags???) it's in the least rude (i didn't even know there was a word like that..they come in bags??) and sounds utterly disrespectful)...

..with regard to your being revolted by the anatomy..you did have a good look first though (outy???)

..most people react if you IM them and tell them in a civil manner that their advances are not welcome..

..if not..you can always ban them..

if we all practised a little more tolerance...the entire world would be a much nicer place to live in

im usually not nude in public places like shops but its only because i get hit on too much. its a hassle i want to avoid even in sl. im really a girl in rl and im a lady with manners, character and integrity. There are things i do in sl i wouldnt even consider in rl. And, if i wanted to run around buckass naked with my beautiful female avatar, i should be able to without being called a whore :( the woman that the op was talking about wasnt pointing an item at him that could penetrate him or make him uncomfortable. so, no i dont think there is a double standard. newbies with prim cocks are usually pointed at you for a reason. let me ask you this. how often do you see a nude male avatar that isnt standing at attention? so no dont accuse me of a double standard. women who are nude are not neccesarily sexual in nature at all. and the op never even suggested that the naked girl was behaving in any low class way that would merit being called nasty names. she was simply nude. i stand behind what i said before in this thread. its offensive to me to hear the OP calling the nude female form whorish in and of itself.


I hope you'll excuse me if I beg to differ - Nipple rings and stillettos sounds somewhat sexually provocative to me.

If a guy wanders around with his wanger waving he gets called a perv - but a girl out for a walk wearing nothing but pierced nipples and stillettos is just normal?

get real lol

Congratulations and shame on you! You are a bit of a slut.

Agreed. But then again I am not one to talk as I am liable to possibly not even really notice that he's attired that way unless it's in a place that isn't actually appropriate ...

BESIDES what's the chances that lots of "she" are not actually a she anyway? Fairly high ...

It was a rather complicated sentence, I'll translate for you:

Basically -

Those who go on and lecture about who is good at it or not -

like they think they know something ...

Are usually pretty damn boring at it themselves.

Well, there may be some double-standardism going on, but I think you missed the point. The specific comparison was between a naked guy with erect member and a naked woman. It's the erection that the poster was objecting to.

In the SL nudist colony I visited, the guys walking around were NOT at attention. Nobody called them pervs that I noticed.

Obviously, you did not turn around to check again once you walked past them.

Thanks Colette...but I didn't need a translator. Nor a belittling. Thanks on both sides though, you're a trooper.

Have I boasted about my sexual prowess? No I haven't. I was only making a statement from my experience...which is pretty well understood as being truth. I didn't deserve a bashing from anybody...

You are the one who said "Eh?"

You are welcome.

------------


Now of course there was some implied boasting involved in your earlier post -

For you to have enough experience to reliably know whether pretty women are as good in bed as less pretty ones you'd have to slept with a fair number of each.

Otherwise you'd just be making stuff up - Or passing on the experiences of others as your own.

Besides the fact that "good in bed" is pretty subjective, since what you'd really be saying is "good in bed when having sex with YOU"

-----------------------

My guess is more likely your significant other doesn't fit the hollywood definition of gorgeous - but you are really loyal and enamored with her and this was a way of stating that.

Many men and women do the same when thinking on their mate.

Just because I elude to me having multiple lovers in my 30+ years is by no means boasting...

I don't know why I get pulled into your vortex every time...I need to learn to avoid the gravitational pull...:)

Kind of hard to say that objectively?

What would be a reliable sample size?


How many women would you have had to slept with to *KNOW* based on looks who is "good in bed" ?

30?

50?

300?

Looks personally have nothing to do with how good they are in bed from personal experience.
Not talking about though type of ugly you're afraid to be near because you might get cooties... I wouldn't go there but it amazing how many guys do at least in real life and actually pay woman that look like walking diseases.
But the question wasn't directed towards me.
