sl community full of deviants?

A Penis? That sounds like something a Doctor would have.

Gene Roddenberry did not allow women who weren't hot to exist in his fantasy universe. And the original series was annoyingly sexist.

Yeah but when you are a kid you don't think of those things. It was the way all TV was back then. Next Gen was annoyingly PC for me actually, I guess Roddenberry was trying to make up for it.

Actually I was disappointed in the first episode or two of NG because some of women crew members were still were still wearing ludicrous short dresses. But I must have not been the only one because then for an episode or two some of the men were wearing them. That was actually pretty cool. After that it was pretty pc.

I had to put up with enough sexism, racism, sexual orientationism etc. when I was young to make nothing ever seem too pc to me.

/me nods and understands.

AND you live in San Diego.

Simple solution: take SL at face value, and nothing more. Don't assume anything you see or do in SL reflects anything in reality, and you will get along just fine. The problems come along when people start melding SL and RL together, pierce the veil between the two, and begin to expect consistency between the two -- you're setting yourself up for pain, in my opinion, if you do that.

If you keep them separate, why do you care about the gender or anything else of the person behind the avatar you are interacting with? Of course, I know not everyone in SL approaches SL this way, but if you seriously think that a virtual world like SL where people can choose to appear how they want and do what they want will reflect in many cases who the person is in real life, you're incredibly naive.

I liked the part about everyone being healthy, fit and attractive though, I like to think that in the future that can be true.

wait, are we talking about Star Trek, or Second Life?

/me wonders how the op feels about main stream media....

Talk about lies and deceptions..

Since we are on deviants, I present to you the cycle of "The Male Relationship".

Godamnit! We need a Farging laugh button! Puhleeezeee. Fix teh Forumz!!!!

Both, both.



That about sums it up I guess.

Mmm, is he wearing a white coat and latex gloves?

Uh, I'll stop there...

Would you rather wind up a Herbert?

Better than a Grump.
Nya, nya, nya nya nya.

The Skants were phased out, along with the unitards, in favour of more "Actor Friendly" jacket and trouser combinations. Though the actual trousers were (as I recall grudgingly) actually similar to overalls soas to provide as "smooth a line" as possible. without a gather at the waist.

If not tailored well, they were quite literally a pain in the ass. Made sitting a bit of a chore as well, as torso length changes when sitting. The side effect of this, was that the jackets would "ride up" on the fabric of the overall pants.. and could ride quite high after a sit-stand scene with a few retakes.

Patrick Stewart had a LOT of scenes where he was sitting, listening to some communication on the bridge, and then having to "stand up dramatically" to address some person on the viewscreen, or someone who walked on to the bridge. These scenes routinely had MANY takes.. Patrick developed a bit of a "personal affectation" after doing these scenes again and again and again over the years, having to deal with the uniform jacket riding up.

This is what trek costumers referred to as "The Picard Maneuver".. the brisk, authoritative downpull of the jacket after standing up.

Later uniforms, from what I understand, eliminated the "built in suspenders" for the pants.. but the "Picard Maeuver" remains a staple of the Picard character.

Don't get me started on the "Maroon Monster" uniforms of ST 2-7

Not only are you people deviants, but you're geeks as well.

Deviant geeks!

ain't life grand?

I only heard cunny recently- I actually have considered- yeah I know, I should get out more.. but anyhoo- I was thinking on the geographical propensity of certain sex-words. In SL one does learn when and where to use them most eloquently and it amazes me really how the usage changes depending on the area of the country or even the world. Until recently, the word c*** for penis had never even entered my vocabulary - just a question of geographical locale- it would be unusual down south - but now it doesn't seem contrived like it used to.

See? Even Deviants can have intellectual pursuits

On the subject of half naked chicks on Star Trek - there is no such thing as sexism - yay sexism! Half naked women and sweaty men...yum - a dream come true - PC BS is nothing but BS - Cheering wildly for sexy people of both genders - pardon me- had a couple of Yukon Lime Jacks

On Star Trek- one of my faves- the Dolman of Elaas.

so many star war fans here..i bet most of you have seen this one already..
