Male vs Female avatar resources

Has anyone else noticed the lack of really good accessories for male av's compared to female? I never had any problem finding attractive clothes, skins, hair, shoes etc. for my female form, but now I'm have a huge problem finding clothes that look realistic. Several people pointed me to spots for hair but I ended up just going to xstreetsl and found a no-name piece. There seems to be a definite lack of selection for male avs. Is there al LL Bean Mens Store somewhere? Am I looking in the wrong places, or is this a case of inequality of the sexes? Thanks. Jackie

I have heard about the lack of male items so many times. It is part of the reason i started a unisex range (also becuase i like to dress androgenous sometimes).

My range is small but definately growing

I'm working on it.

Slowly.

But I'll get there.

Try the following places for clothes: Muism, Armidi, Renegade, Naughty Island, SiniStyle, TonkTastic.

For hair try Armidi, Damselfly and UW

Skins Bellaza

If you contact me in world I think I have landmarks for all of them.

I got some great boots by sn@oks (I think that's the name).

But looking for a pair of jeans was hard, it took ages and the ones I got I don't really like anyway.

I got my t-shirt for free it's the *I* am adult content one.

Thanks...that leads me back to my point...I tried Bellaza for skins, several people recommended it. I finally ended up at Millage because I didn't think the Bellaza ones had the texture I thought they should have. Almast everyone suggested Damselfly, 90 percent of the shop was female and I only saw one display with a bunch of shaggy male hair, none of which looked realistic (to me, in all fairness). Found my new hair for L$29 on xstreetsl. I'll try the clothes places next. I appreciate the tips.

Thanks. I have my *I* tshirt already. Khaki slacks, loafers, collar type polo shirts, blue jeans, sweatshirts, boat shoes, khaki shorts...help!

Males are too afraid to be seen as gay to be fashionable enough.

Womens can look like anything.

Mens are afraid to be seen as anything else than mens.

OOOH...there ya go! I'm hitting the dirt to avoid the upcoming small arms fire...

/me crawls to shelter

ARd for homophobia.

Hehe, you sound cool with it all. Just keep away from those suits that look like a skin!

With the all the jeans I saw was they stuck to tight on my av, there was no looseness. I think I should have searched for prim made clothes now I know more.

Oh ye gods and little fishes. Welcome to the vision of the future of the whitewashed, PG-ified Grid, peopled by self-appointed morality police alts.

Don't be ridiculous, it was nothing of the sort. Grow up.

LOL When my RL wife looked at the screen the other day and saw my ave she said "Is that meant to be you" I replied "Yes in my fishing gear"

The response was" You look like a fairy Queen"

Cheers luv,

Who the hell do you think you are?

Jackie, I will drop some landmarks on you today. Off the top of my head Blaze and Junglewear should fit your needs, not sure of the spellings of the others.

There are moderators here?

Come on, lighten up.

No need. Just buy or find freebie modifiable jeans so you can add 'Looseness' under the 'Pants' tab in 'Appearance'. A setting of roughly 40 gives a fairly baggy look and between 15-20 on the crotch helps make the look of a looser fit too. Unfortunately nothing can be done about the butt cleft on avs so we just have to live with the impression that we're eating our own pants.

Personally, I prefer skin tight jeans not because I like them but because they at least 'look' like they're supposed to be that way.

Kyrah's comment is actually commenting on the homophobia (well not even homophobia...) of others there is nothing in that statement which could even remotely be seen as homophobia or negative against gay men.

Actually it suggests that gay men as a demographic have style and flair however the general population of straight men are worried about being categorised as gay for simply wearing a certain style or look..

Seems to be to be a pretty fair and accurate statement though a sad one of the reflection of the world as a whole

I was the subject of the comment and I don't have a problem with it. You might want to go back and read my response to it. 8 posts and threatening to AR a long term Forum contributer? hehehe

Thanks, Chris.

Now can I have my thread about male clothing back?

Frankly, I assumed a little joke occurred here. At least I very much doubt Cato seriously AR'd Kyrah.

Thanks, I'll try on these I have.
