Does asking for friends in world on the forum really work?
Paul Hexem replied to Kathlen Onyx's topic in Make Friends
Actually, I will follow up by saying that this is definitely a big problem in SL- I'm pretty sure @Orwar joined the group I was recently advertising so we're actually seeing it in real time. Even with a dedicated place to hang out, ways to leave messages for each other, group notices going out, people still won't take that first initiative to speak up and get the ball rolling. -

Yes. To all the questions. -
Coming to Accept "Different" people in Second Life
Paul Hexem replied to Love Zhaoying's topic in General Discussion Forum
I clearly have more friends than that guy. Home made! Most people buy their rat poison in stores. -

Paul Hexem replied to Love Zhaoying's topic in General Discussion Forum
He sounds terrible! More than just different! Look at you, defending a sexist. I'm shocked and appalled. Downright bewildered! Next you're gonna say @Luna Bliss's Women's Studies degree will never help make a sandwich. Who would say something like that? Shame on you. -
Not sure how he finds me every time
Paul Hexem replied to Myrthe Mysterious's topic in General Discussion Forum
Yeah, and the rain wins if we use an umbrella! -

Some of us are different alright. -
Irony, well met! Besides, I understand it perfectly. I do it too, but way more obviously.

Further evidence that threads like these are made just to rile the forums up, like I was saying.

A Real Therapist/ counselor?
Paul Hexem replied to Benson Gravois's topic in General Discussion Forum

We're getting way off topic with this one and it has nothing to do with SL, so I suggest posting it or sending it elsewhere, but I'd love to see some peer reviewed studies or findings on matriarchy ever functioning or even existing long term or large scale in human history.

Yes, they do. Statistically, anyway. This extends beyond just SL- you're expecting the world to change and the entire dynamic of interpersonal relationships to operate differently. Which to be fair is an admirable goal... Unfortunately, according to just about every study out there, most women don't want it to change. Which means it won't. Men will continue to have to be the ones to approach, including the men that are bad at it.

Diversity and Inclusion in Second Life
Paul Hexem replied to Love Zhaoying's topic in General Discussion Forum
I watched a thing recently about Daryl Davis. I didn't do any deep dives into it, but the premise it showed off was really impressive. -

Paul Hexem replied to Love Zhaoying's topic in General Discussion Forum
YES BUT... SL also has the little X up at the top right we can use to escape RLV or getting caught AFK, too. -

Yeah, but at least in SL I can instantly teleport to a different location that doesn't have the same barriers and issues. -

As short term solution, letting landlords sort it out sounds good. But now they have to hire people to spend time doing that, and land costs just went up 8,000%. Plus the moment one of them does the thing they're supposed to mediate, it's back on LL again. -

Sure, LL could start trying to enforce discrimination claims like the legal system does, too. They'll be bankrupt in about 7 seconds. Those claims last years and cost millions to sort out. -

Paul Hexem replied to Love Zhaoying's topic in General Discussion Forum
I'm not sure how LL could do that better without getting into this territory where I can grief you and then say "I'm PoC, you can't ban me". It's an extremely fine line they have to walk. -
But not entirely without merit, apparently. I can't help it, you lobbed me that one.

I live in a country that defeated them in a war so that I don't have to care what they think!
