Help with survey for class

We think alike. Kinda spooky (see my comment above which I made without reading yours)

Are you sure you want to be quite so ambiguous and undecided about this?

Such prejudice and stereotyping. I expected better from you Jig. I really did.

I never went to uni. but can imagine teh jockey types that do. Brains like blunt instruments and fingers like spanners. Perfect for their balls but not so great for turning pages.

It is possible to like both.

More stereotyping Jig?

A real man trains both his mind and his body. And fingers like spanners come in handy when a weaker person needs a jar opened.

"A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects."

-Robert A. Heinlein

Not really stereotyping. I tend to see men as potentially opportunistic. Few men have what I require since few men really offer to me what I dont have already. The higher up in the pecking orer we go, the harder it becomes to find a mate who gives us more than was we have already. It`s Maslow`s theory of Need`` isnt it. Besides football and hockey are truly desolatingly boooring. I much prefer tennis. Maybe some downhill skiing; I love the helmets and teh cowbells.

"pecking order" now? My Jig, your "we are the world" facade is really slipping today.

Come on, own up! Which one was it that answered, "Zindra" to the last question?

Dunno.... Are watersports considered a sport?

Move to the east coast; marry a Kennedy.

I part-live on East Coast. Hellloooooo Kennedys

You must have led a very sheltered existence Jig, and missed out on some seriously interesting opportunities.

While I find the idea of doing a casual survey for an undergraduate English paper to be pretty harmless, I do think that you should spend more than the three minutes it obviously took to put this survey together. You may also want to change the "text-speak" used in your survey into standard English for your final paper, as any instructor worth his or her salt would fail you immediately for writing "idk" or "no 1."

I hadn't heard about sports in SL either for quite awhile (of course I wasn't really looking for them either) but the ones that have come to my attention are:

*7Seas Fishing - Huge Following
*Boating - everything from small boats-sailboats-Yachts. There are at least a couple of Yacht clubs in SL
*Not sure if Laser Tag is considered a sport per se...but used to play a bit of that myself in SL
*Horseback riding - Caledon has a group dedicated to this and I heard from a friend that another group offers horse racing
*Some SL residents enjoy swimming and suba diving - I believe there is a place that actually gives SL scuba diving class and *may* be associated with a RL scuba diving association
*Skydiving


Those are off the top of my head. May not be the typical football, baseball, basketball type of sports, but still sports, imo.

LOL. Which PSYCHOLOGY course is this for again???

Could we get vBulletin to include "survey" as one of the words it refuses to accept in a post?

Yes, we've had GOHA hockey in existence for years now, and plan on many more seasons!

Also, check out a couple other unique and awesome sports venues in SL:

Simboarding, run by Cyphien Heart

Giant snail racing, run by RacerX Gullwing

Jig...check your meds, sweetie, they seem to be off. I introduce in evidence the following wacky statements.

"I tend to see men as potentially opportunistic". Sexist. Stereotyping. Women can be every bit as opportunistic.

"...few men really offer to me what I dont have already" Er...masculinity? A Y chromosome for your progeny? A penis? Simple companionship? Someone to take out the garbage?

"The higher up in the pecking orer we go, the harder it becomes to find a mate who gives us more than was we have already" Typos and spelling aside, this statement seems to make sense...until you realize that the various good qualities that you lump into the term "pecking order" aren't a linear scale, but a multidimensional array. One may have a great deal of some good quality, intelligence, or talent for something, or empathy, and yet lack some other good quality. The search for a soulmate is in some ways like the search for a missing jigsaw puzzle piece. What does HE have that completes you?

"It's Maslow's theory of Need, isn't it" No, it isn't. You can't make Maslow fit this box.

"Some stuff on sports preferences)" I pretty much agree with you on football (either sort) and hockey, but I think tennis is even MORE boring. And you mean "downhill racing". Simple downhill skiing generally doesn't involve either helmets or cowbells.
