Frankly, I'm not interested in fashion, but I find your thoughts to be more educational than the shocking examples of what tries to pass itself off as human when it approaches you. I'll admit to my own stack of mental foibles, but seeing people as NPCs...well, that sounds like most men I know, I'm afraid, so I have to agree with you...but it's a trait of sociopaths. I hate to think that most men are sociopaths; it's frightening enough to know that most government officials seem to be sociopathic.<br />I love your underwear comment regarding typing skills, by the way; I think that's the best answer to poor typing and careless spelling that I've ever heard! (Sadly, most of the RP I've encountered in SL has been of that sort, often produced by self-proclaimed "sophisticated" para-RPers who provide such convoluted paragraphs that you can't decide at what point your response is supposed to fit in.)<br />Back to my original thought, though: I realize that most *outgoing* men seem to be...inane...but there are places where (at least some of) the men are truly interested in developing relationships. No, I'm not hitting on you; I have too many long-term developments in my life to be trying to start new relationships, but friends are welcome. Contact me inworld if you're curious: MicSteel Newman. I'm normally logged in 24/7 and thus most likely to be AFK, but I'll reply as soon as I can.Michaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02524263885460549357noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1108779732193340014.post-29767342220337299702014-02-24T00:30:19.183-08:002014-02-24T00:30:19.183-08:00Glad you enjoyed it.Glad you enjoyed it.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02619018164909616871noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1108779732193340014.post-36553762228985967362014-02-23T11:51:40.885-08:002014-02-23T11:51:40.885-08:00Love this!

My RL is riddled with sexism I can't often do much about, so flogging someone for their blatant idiocy on SL can be cathartic and invigorating. Love reading your responses to these asshats...Redhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12297531118283931742noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1108779732193340014.post-41414077424123322662011-09-21T22:11:27.837-07:002011-09-21T22:11:27.837-07:00*laughs* Not at all; one thing I do have some prid...*laughs* Not at all; one thing I do have some pride in, and consider integral to my personality, is a bit of wit. <br /><br />Awww, you're very sweet. It's nice to hear someone else likes it! Sometimes I think no one reads, or I should just do fashion and not the 'this is what I'm thinking' side of things. It's nice to hear someone likes to read it!Deoridhehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17235419292633778692noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1108779732193340014.post-49046707333529306422011-09-21T19:50:51.518-07:002011-09-21T19:50:51.518-07:00Is it as objectifying when I say that I found this...Is it as objectifying when I say that I found this: " you aren't trying to talk to another person, but rather you're trying to find the up-down-up-down-left-right-a-b code to get sex" rather hot. I'm not trying to sex you.<br /><br />Great post and I don't think you're oversensitive or hysterical to see these things. I think the lens of Sl is actually rather helpful in terms of putting on display some of the blatant sexism that persists in our society at its very core. I think sometimes putting an avatar face on very human failures and prejudices helps us to confront things we don't like to face. <br /><br />All this to say that while I hate that you have to deal with this in world, I truly appreciate you discussing it here.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04653064285164376921noreply@blogger.com
