Any person that drives around in a deliberately emaciated avatar and claims to have anorexia, or is pro-anorexia, is role playing. They are making light of a very serious metal disorder that takes lives - all for sexual kicks. I find this disgusting.

I'd guess it's what used to be called "slim" or "lithe"... back when average vocabulary extended beyond 500 words, anyway.

I LOVE being tall, dead handy when you want to change a lightbulb too. But as a teen it took awhile to accept Id never be dainty. Every little difference seems magnified at that age. Ive just had to guide a 12 yr old thro accepting that shes likely to be a 6fter (5ft 8 already).
The pressures on children are just enormous and trying to focus them on exam results rather than appearance is an uphill battle somedays.

Groups like this pro-ana are beyond my comprehension and I think theyre dangerous for impressionable youngsters who arnt confident in themselves and how they look.

Sticking your dick in one of these things officially counts as necrophilia.

Also, anybody who thinks realistic height avs are children in SL, do you think anybody you've fucked in real life who was under 6 feet tall was a child? No? But in Second Life they ARE children?

People amaze me.

I'm surprised I missed that, my mind usually is all over anything like that.

Brazilians add a special little spiciness to SL all their own.

It was a Brazilian I overheard telling his SLsexmate, "You suck good like my chicken."

that boggles the mind, Penny. Yours was the first avatar I saw that was so goddamn sweet-looking I felt intimidated by it

I couldn't imagine taking away the "cute" from your "cute but could totally fuck you up" look you have going on.

And that's what we're talking about, really: round parts on women are cute, they're pretty...they're MEANT to be there.

Fortunately, models and such aside, I see genuine evidence that Americans are starting to come wise to the fact that women are meant to have nice, round bodies:

I live in a college town, and over the last 10 years, I've seen more and more girls walking campus with some real curves, NOT dressed to hide them, for a change.


This pleases me on many levels

I guess my avatar conforms enough to "normal" proportions that I've never heard negative criticism about her. Except when I walk around bald which is an entirely different statement. But I actually did lose a friend accidentally when I tp'd her to me after a really long time of not seeing her avi in person. She was in one of those corsetry groups, and her waist slider was all the way at 0 and you could see the mesh being distorted around her, otherwise her shape looked thin but ok, but her waist and hips and love handle area... well, it repulsed me, and the first thing I said was "wow... your shape.. your waist looks disgusting, I hope you're changing that". Because I'm blunt like that. Well, unfortunately our friendship wasn't strong enough to handle that sort of comment, and she tp'ed away and I was left backpeddling trying to a) find out why her shape was like that and b) tell her I didn't have anything against her personally I just was worried about her own self image. Well, I certainly made a rather harsh snap judgment about her and I still feel guilty about it. But luckily I don't think she was ever pro-ana, just... hopefully she was trying to fit under a prim corset
