| My av is 5 ft tall ISL and her butt/belly/lovehandles sliders are over 40. That's cause the real Kess is 5 feet tall and butt, belly, and lovehandle sliders are over 40 as well ;-).
I've had some interesting comments, one even going so far as to comment on my blog how I wish I was as hot as my avatar.
When I did a fatvatar 'thing' (It's late I can't remember the word) for my friend's presentation to a pop culture conference I got some VERY interesting reactions from people. So much so that one of my comments was:
"On a system that prides itself on being so unique and ‘your world your imagination,’ it’s amazing how strange the conversation habits turn when your avatar is overweight. However, someone as a giant dragon with a penis is considered acceptable"
The title of her presentation was: You Mean You Chose To Be Fat? Body Image in A Virtual World. |
