How many dic pics does everyone else have in their inventory? I'm finding ones I didn't know were there. I'd make my own thread but it would get closed.

Women's expectations: Unrealistic
Ingrid Ingersoll replied to Paul Hexem's topic in General Discussion Forum
Gender battles are stupid. It's stupid to make assumptions about individuals based on anecdotal experience and what the internet is telling you. -
Women's expectations: Unrealistic
Ingrid Ingersoll replied to Paul Hexem's topic in General Discussion Forum
No its easy for men to meet women in sl because most women in sl are men. It's like a dragon chasing its own tail. And getting it. Men do a great job of entertaining each other in sl. -
Women's expectations: Unrealistic

Yes, Online Dating Is Harder For Men, But It’s Not For The Reasons You Might Think https://medium.com/heart-affairs/yes-online-dating-is-harder-for-men-but-its-not-for-the-reasons-you-might-think-ae4269ecd3d1 Concerning the gender ratio: Tinder has the worst with 21.9% women and 78.1% men. While Badoo has 35% women and 65% men. Bumble seems to have the most balanced ratio out of the three at around 43% women and 57% men. Bear in mind most dating apps are not forthright with their usage statistics. So dating experts have to resort to fancy web analytics and data sampling techniques to extrapolate dating app figures and statistics. It’s common to see conflicting data depending on where you look. Even so, most of the information readily available all points toward men outnumbering women on all the top dating apps. Here is why the gender ratio matters Assuming everyone partners up one to one, having too few women means there are always going to be men who remain matchless no matter how hard they try. And even if a perfectly balanced app existed, men would continue to struggle because both genders use dating apps for different purposes. Research on swiping habits shows men use dating apps to search for sex or short-term relationships, while for women, it’s more about validation and affirmation of their attractiveness. But all this is not to say people are not going on dating apps looking for relationships, it’s just that those that seek commitment in its various forms are muddled up with everyone else, making it harder for like- minded people to match with each other. When you factor in the small pool of women who are actually on these apps to date, most men are left with no choice but to be more aggressive — mass swiping, making first contact, and pushing for a quick meetup if they happen to get a match. This aggressive nature in how men approach dating apps inadvertently leads to women becoming selective because most of their “yes” swipes end up matching. I’m sure for people struggling to get matches, the thought of having an abundance of them probably feels like the best thing ever. But, having too many options often leads to a paradox of choice — when you face too many choices, you are less likely to pick one and feel good about it. -

Self-Care September Promotion & SL Groups
Ingrid Ingersoll replied to Luna Bliss's topic in General Discussion Forum
I know you were responding to Sam here but, a while back you posted that someone you were very close to in sl lied to you for literally 8 years about their real sex. I'm surprised that now you are championing the idea of trusting any stranger on the internet for anything really. I guess it really depends on what level of risk you are comfortable with and when it comes to strangers online, many people are not willing to take that gamble for good reason. -
Self-Care September Promotion & SL Groups
Ingrid Ingersoll replied to Luna Bliss's topic in General Discussion Forum
I'm in the "don't put your real life out there" camp too. So support groups in sl are a hard no for me. I'm.surprised there's any interest in them in sl aside from role playing honestly. Seems incredibly risky. -
Fake shadows - a request to creators
Ingrid Ingersoll replied to John Nova's topic in General Discussion Forum
The fake shadows on most of the really good creator content is done well I think and I still like it. But yeah if it's mod just set it to totally transparent or delete that part from the object. -

I like how you think of us as snacks. -
Because like you, they get off on certain things, and other things they don't. And that's their business not yours. And it doesn't matter if that doesnt work for you or not, because its not about you. And it doesn't mean they're homophobic.

And men. I find it hilarious when i see "voice verrified". As if there's an organization that verifies that you're female irl. There's probbaly not one rl women who has that in their profile. It's all so stupid sometimes i wonder why i still log in.... Oh yeah the decorating.

Exactly. And don't jump to conclusions like homophobia, or any conclusions really. Because we all our are entitled to our own sexual preferences, LGTBQ or not as human beings. Unless they're being outright homophobic. In which case, have at it.

I've never assumed that a gay man was misogynistic if he wasn't attracted to me sexually. Cause you know, that's absurd. So when I hear accusations of homophobia in relation to sexual oreference, it seems just as absurd to me.
