SL Sex, Lies, and Mind Games

You have been here long enough to know how most all conversations end.

Can you use it on Twilight? Pleazzzzzze???

There's a whole spectrum, hyenas are at one end, seals at the other, and plenty of species have no clear dominant gender. Trust your dog but not your dogma.

And who can resist this cute face?

Eeeep.

How can data be irrelevant to an argument?

Yeah, me too. I'm totally won over.

I'm going to hazard a guess that he doesn't engage in intellectual thought about his social position re female dogs. Course, I could be wrong.

I have been reading this thread with considerable amusement, and thought it was time to throw in a few more comments to balance up the hysterical activist ranting.
Only if you think that quantity is better than quality, or that torrents of over-emotional irrationalities trump logical common sense.
You are demonstrating your bias again (as does Scylla below) assuming that I meant physical strength rather than mental strength or strength of character.
Says who? Just take, *your* example below, the numbers of men playing "females" in comparison with women playing males; I'm much less likely to "trust" a "female" in RL to be a female.
ROFL! Your own posts are full of references to the "Geek" without whom it would seem that you might have problems even starting up SL.
Excellent! You can labour and we'll just enjoy ourselves.
If this was relevant, why do proportionately so many more "females" get driven to lesbian relationships, then? I understand you can spek authoritatively regarding this subject.
An Ad Man's dream! Conspicuous and completely unnecessary consumption! With all those impressionable women here I am astonished that LL hasn't managed to monetise the game by inviting Google in.
Are they real men though?
I'm quite happy to leave you to your blind belief.
You personally (as well as others) have demonstrated consistently your lack of strength of character, allowing yourself to be manipulated so that your emotional weaknesses have been made public; and that is losing control in a forum, where speed and extent of response is completely under your control - inworld I would anticipate that hyperemotional over-reactions would be precipitated more quickly, and my experience backs this up.
That is a necessary belief for you, I suppose.
No we don't. I'm quite happy for you feminists to strive for equality, but please can you do it quietly somewhere else so you don't interrupt my beer, chips and sport.
Pipe-dreams!

Pep (Just check how many complaints in these forums are initiated by women, rather than men, and tell me who is happier with SL. )

The smilie means you're not serious, right? 'Cos if you are, it's a false inference. Just because men appear not to "complain" here as frequently as women, you cannot infer they must therefore be happier.

Perhaps they don't post because they think "real" men don't do that sort of thing. Maybe they don't see complaints from other men and so assume that sort of thing is only for women. Maybe they just sob themselves to sleep at night. Heck, maybe they just bottle it up and go grief someone in-world. And then again, maybe they really are happier. The thing is, you just don't know.

Pep (A false inference might lead to truth, but you still took the wrong direction to get there)

It's a "wink" smily, to indicate that I know something you don't.
Unless you can convincingly demonstrate that men do not complain then you are wasting time and space here. And you haven't made any cogent argument for your viewpoint at all.
No, *you* don't know. I *am* a man. I *do* know. And you are wrong. Once again, female emotional argument leads up a blind alley.
I think you are missing the point of my argument *and* the way I present it

Pep (See my comments elsewhere on whether truth is a valid concept in SL.)

Pep makes up for the rest of the gender. Both in numbers of complaints and in wasting time and space.

Complain? Me? I don't need to.

And you obviously don't feel that I am wasting your time and space by the Law of Revealed Preference, since you don't have me on ignore.

Pep (And, anyway, what would a badly role-played lower order animal like you know about men?)

Because they don't want to walk.

Haaa!

How do you know?

I'm glad it is 1 penis, 1 pair testicles. instead of the other way around. 1 pair penis, 1 testicle.

good kitty *pets*

Don't knock it until you've tried it

There was that philosophy professor who wrote that really long series of books (or was it psychology? I forget). People like reenacting them in world. Other people argue about "internet" vs. "real" vs. "book" etc. How close to the book, or if they really have read the good book or only have someone tell them what is in it or, etc.

Some nice looking sims, nature, city, those Goreans. I tend to explore where I can out of sight of people, so I can't say one way or another how the people are, though.

Serve up on a plate. Don't forget ketchup. I let you know.

Nope, he is an econ professor from New Orleans who proposes an economic rather than a social cause for the male/female wage gap. Though social conditions do play a role in the economic choices.

I was referring to a different professor. I was saying that there was professor that wrote this long series of books. You know, the Gor series? It was a response to feminism.

If you don't have me on ignore you have no reasonable basis to make such a comment, obviously.

Pep (I'm psychic, too.)

Other than enjoying some of Boris' book covers, that series never interested me. (If it wasn't Boris, it was someone who drew in his style)

Most of them are good and intelligent people. Living on a Gor sim is like living in a small town.

The male dominance thing gets very old very quickly though.
