RE: Second Life Psychology: Who Do We Choose To Be, When We Can Be Anything?
I have to think about this a bit more... I assume this is what VR will serve for, once it is nicely developed - to serve one's desires. And as it showed so many times, people often don't know what they want, or sometimes they do but they don't know what are the consequences.("be careful what you wish for", or "dreaming") So, if one doesn't know what she/he wants, he/she goes for what he/she thinks others want. These female avatars want you to want them. I guess. But male avatars, also, if you think about it, it is just less "naked".
Indeed a very interesting subject, Sherlock .:)
I guess we're all trying to get attention - upvote and resteem! And men and women will have different strategies for it.
And I think you're right about people not knowing what they want. By the time we're through high school and maybe college, we've been following the paths laid down by others for so long it's almost impossible to think for ourselves.
