Kid Child Fun
Is it wrong to be a child in Second Life (Virtual Online Game) As I find it fun and I love being a kid?
Recently I changed my avatar a child and was getting negative feedback from others in the Christian community for being a child rather than an adult. They stated the reason as to why because of child abuse are in Second Life and could bring them myself and I will not be taken seriously. But for me Second Life is what we make it. I own a ministry is not safe for the infidels or to find answers to questions about God and I said this could draw attention away from my ministry. To boil down. I am a child avatar because the clothes for women in Second Life tend to be revealing. I also like being a child because it's fun and it's my personality in real life. Also I like to experience things in Second Life that I never had the opportunity to experience real life. I feel like I'm being attacked for choosing this avatar. I do not want change. But I'm not sure what to do. I will listen and listen to advice. So Shoot!
First, do not listen to the opinions of the people if they themselves do not use Second Life or have spent much time there. I can regularly use Second Life avatars and I see children all the time. It is a concern that some sick or you can create a child avatar for pedophile fantasies – or look for another child avatars for the same reasons – but to be honest, most children have seen avatars that were only people like you, without damaging role as children because they felt they could goof around more that way and just enjoy being silly. (A lot of normal adult avatars do the same). Ultimately, there is no reason you can not zip around as an avenue for children if you like, Second Life gives you that freedom. If people in SL or RL can not get past his appearance because you look like a kid in SL, I'm wondering how they would react if you were, say, to look like a scorpion or a robot or a dragon or a tree or a scarecrow (I have all the avs). You could point to in the second life – as in the real life – appearances are little more than a superficial appearance. The person behind the appearance is what you should pay attention to, and if you still can not get more than their appearance, that means they are superficial. It's that simple.
