Is it possible to put a beard on a female char or breasts on a male char
have just created a char. & downloading client now  my char name is kinkly (last name starts with W )

Why to put a beard in a female character? You feel like that?
You can be a perfect female and you choose to put a beard on you?

Anyway, yesterday it was my first inWorld session with sisters from US :-))) It was an awesome experience to be there like I lived close to them.

That's why I want to be there ;-)

For many of you that isn't something special, but for me that makes the difference from any other communication tool or program.

I'm on! "Lutin Brenot", and I've just arrived "in-world", and have *no* idea what I'm doing!

I don't know...I would assume it's possible, as I almost managed to put a skirt on a male character (but then realized that if it got stuck like that I'd have no idea how to reverse it, and so decided not to).

Yes, a combination of genders, a null gendered person, your local friendly chimera, an androgyne.

yes while i'm Bio Male feel mostly female the only part of my body i don't consider ugly is my beard I told by a few friends that i needed to improve my image and when I grew my beard I got a few complements.  While I'm Pre everything I dot see me loosing the beard until my face is more female.

My char is female with beard & long hair
but there seems to be nothing to do
I used a link someone posted here but i couldn't find anything special where i was teleported to  i think i'll go back to runescape

Its good to see so many of you are on SL. I am a total SL addict I build script and am a sim owner there *giggles* I don't think I stayed a male on SL for more than a month before I changed  into a cute little leopard girl. Most of my newer friends there are genetic females there and have no clue I am a guy IRL although I will admit to it if asked.
All my old friends know  since I kept my same name and all and they say it suits me way better LOL. Anyways I have a  nice little business there and am In-world every day (usually later in the day eastcoast). I would love to hear from any of y'all in there, so search>> Free Wildcat and  shot me a MSG or stop by my sim>Dolphine Deep in the furry valleys and check out the new garden center I am building.
*waves a paw* see you In-World =^_^=
PS: If anyone wants help with their AV, needs to talk  or just want someone to go shopping with  MSG me anytime. 

Well, I have an account.

And just today I was clearing up some seldom used programs on my computer and came across Second Life again.  So I decided to check it out to see if it had changed much.  Unfortunately, from my perspective, it hasn't.

My initial perception was that it's just evolved into a playground for interactive cybersex.  A playground where people's fantasies are actually acted out explicitly.  Morals are sometimes thrown out the window because, although many people that SL seriously, if things go too far you can always use the scapegoat 'it's just a game'. 

But what worried me the most was the horrible misrepresentation of the transgender community.  If you try a search for transsexual in SL's search engine, you're filled with results about ->-bleeped-<-s, bdsm clubs, escorts and 'forced feminization'. 

So yeah, I was a bit upset when I saw all that.  Maybe there's more to SL, maybe I'm wrong. I'll admit I didn't stay too long, so perhaps I didn't see all the positive sides.

But I just thought I'd throw in my two cents since I just logged on today.
^_^

Hopefully I didn't offend anybody who really enjoys it.

Second Life was and in many ways still is life unfiltered. The filters are creeping in but Linden Labs has resisted filtering and mostly just followed the law. Search results are ordered by traffic and sex sells. Looking at the top search results with mature content unchecked the top result is a Twisted ->-bleeped-<-s Club at 20442 traffic(this result is a blatant TOS violation that should be marked mature). The 3rd and 4th results are more in line with what we'd be looking for an LGBT friendly lounge and a  trans resource center but only have 2304 traffic and 1975 traffic respectively nice but no competition with a sex club. As long as LL uses the traffic metric to sort results positive trans locations will be buried deep under 'sex sells' stuff in the mature listings.

There is alot of sex just like on the regular internet and in regular real life. Human life sort of revolves around sex. However this isn't the fault of SL isn't what SL is about or the only thing in SL. Almost everything in SL is created by users there is a small set of linden provided content that can be found in your library but in terms of percentage of total content isn't even measurable. People use SL is a wide variety of different ways. The popularity of sex doesn't reflect badly on SL it's a reflection of humanity allowed by SL.

As a trans individual SL has been a wonderful gift to me allowing me to experience life as a woman in a way thats not possible, atleast now, in real life. Not the clothes or the body or the name although I certainly get that. But just being able to interact with people who see me as nothing but a woman.

SL is what you make of it and there is a vast and diverse world that goes far beyond sex clubs and camping chairs.

I agree with both of you Nikki and Floating.... SL has good things and bad. If you can get past the bad things it
does help you explore being a woman full time. For me a fun thing was changing my body and face to be
exactly what I wanted... but that is the frustrating part too... I wanted that in real life. And it made real life that much
more painful. But I think anyone new here that has never tried SL and wants to experience being a woman should
try it... it will be eye opening for you.

Well SL is a lot like RL in that you will find what your looking for. I have met some outstanding folks from all over the world there. I am in a horse riding club that explores a different sim every week and I run a business that brigs in RL money. So there is a lot to do there besides sex. Also I am aware of at least one TG support group there but I think there are more. I have not talked to the owners but they have some good reading material at there office as well as a way to contact of of them if you need to talk. Again if anyone wants to hangout in SL IM me inworld >> Free Wildcat  or PM me here.
*hugs*

Second Life - where the men are men, and the women are mostly men.

As I'm new here (2 days..nearly), I missed the post about SL so I thought I'd add my bit now.

I've been playing it for a while now as a girl (Name removed) and have found it has helped me so much with practicing interaction skills with GGs that I've got to know.
I've never discussed my gender with them, so when they say things like "I can tell you are really a girl" and "I know you're not a guy pretending", It makes me feel so good.
I really hate deceiving my virtual friends, they are real people after all, but who am I to bust their bubbles......and anyway, I wouldn't get to hear gossip about what they think of men if I did.

Does anyone else use SL to hone their skills?.................or do you just go there to get spanked in a seedy dungeon?

Feel free to IM me inworld, but please dont blow it for me. Im having enough problems coming out MTF. I don't want to have to do it there too FTM.

I go there to get spanked in a seedy dungeon...!

I never heard of SL until now.  I just joined and am downloading the client.,  I am Sly Thespian.  That cute blond avatar actually looks a lot like me since I am a natural blond with hair that length and I am small boned.  I can't wait to explore this brave new world.

Virtual reality thing for me started quite early, first with Sims. Although i
given up sims (after many hours, days, months, i think even a few years
of playing) many years ago i still tried Second Life, last year.
Just like with any other game of that style i found it wrong, i had moments
of pitying myself for "living" that virtauy life and leting go of real one....
eventaully i quit all of these, and don't miss it at all

I find that living in most major cities, SF, LA, NYC, Philly, Miami etc. is pretty much life unfiltered.  Everything is there if you take the time to look and read and ask.

My laptop isn't really high-spec, and I use mobile internet, so I can't really download and play Second Life, much as I would like to. But I did create an account in IMVU, and got completely caught up in the whole shopping thing. It was so much fun. Once I found I was able to buy credits through my mobile phone, heck I would spend hours browsing the outfits and hair styles.

I came out to the second person ever through that, and it was the most surreal experience you can imagine. We were sat around a table, in a Japanese style house, with strains of Koto music playing in the background, and a view of the ocean, drinking tea and just generally chewn' the fat.

She wanted to know why I'd chosen a female avatar, since she knew me as male, and it just sort of all came out. Very strange, baring your soul to an albino cat woman with a huge samurai sword strapped to her back, lol. But I felt so much better afterwards. And she gave me a black rose.

Unfortunately, she has since disappeared from the face of the net and, since no one else I know uses IMVU, or knows me for me, I've stopped using it. Right after I bought a huge, gothic castle to lounge around in, lol. It does have AIM or MSN beat hands down though... there's nothing quite like chatting on the back of a giant eagle, soaring through the sky above the clouds, bathed in moonlight.

Wow
Its sounds like IMVU has come a long way since it started. I was one of the first 5000 or so on there back when there were only like 4 different "rooms" to hang out in. Me and another kitty use to spend hours hanging out on a rooftop in the moonlight chatting. It was way better than YIM or MSN but then I found SL and gave up most of the other chat clients besides yahoo. I will have to take another look at IMVU sometime soon.

Oh and SL can really suck you in. If you have a addictive personality or  are really unhappy in RL. I have seen several folks that went from newbie to staying in-world over 20 hours a day. One girl I know lost her job got kicked out of her house and had to move back in with her parents because she was so hooked on SL.

Second life is the ultimate body modification fantasy.  There is no such thing as "fat clothes" in second life.  If an outfit makes your butt look big, just change your butt.

I installed Second Life last week-- but I can't use it because my computer's memory and graphics card or whatever you call it (<--- not a techie) are inadequate. When I tried to run SL, it first went extremely slow, then froze up entirely. So until I upgrade to a spiffier computer, the SL woman who is me will be parked offline in the garage or wherever it is they go to when not in action. Big disappointment.

I've tried it out... but it just seems too tedious to customize everything and get to the interesting stuff. I lost interest easily.

Oh, there's plenty of stuff to do.  Just have a little patience.
