I know there were a bunch of closed threads about online gaming as female characters. Anyone else still do this?
I've been hanging out on IMVU for quite a while, kind of as a little release for when the pink fog hits and I'm unable to dress IRL (gaming slang for "in real life"). I'll occasionally spend a couple of hours in the evening hanging out online in the chat rooms, visiting friends, trying on new looks and outfits, and generally enjoying femme time online.
Have to admit that dressing up online has its advantages.
- Everyone can easily look like a supermodel (You actually have to try REALLY hard to look ugly!)
- Dresses !!! Gowns !!!! Lingerie !!! OH MY !!!!
- One-click wardrobe changes
- Your makeup is always perfect
- "Does this dress make my butt look too big?" "There's a resizer/scaler for that ..."
- "Wardrobe malfunctions" mean that the graphics are glitching, not your actual clothing.
- Shoes !!! Shoes that FIT !!!
- No matter how many dresses or outfits you have in your virtual closet, they don't take up ANY space!
- You can wear clothes that would get you arrested IRL (in real life), and no one bats an eyelash.
- If you start getting harassed by someone, escape and relief is a mere mouse-click away.
- Costumes !!!
( Yes, I have a Jessica Rabbit costume ... "I'm not bad ... my pixels are just arranged that way ...")
