It may only be fantasy, but is it OK for people to be allowed to use SL to get pleasure from these fantasies? Would you want these adults anywhere near your kids in RL? Don't you feel uncomfortable when you see child avatar vendors with pictures of the avatar in sexually suggestive poses? Is this OK because it was created for consenting age play? Personally, I don't think it is. I think lines should be drawn more often than they are, and I'm by no means a prude.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7779588274142797600.post-44433666425416271782007-08-17T23:14:00.000-07:002007-08-17T23:14:00.000-07:00I came by this blog trying to find out more about ...I came by this blog trying to find out more about SL. Nice job! I feel it important to put in my 2 lindens worth and state that since Linden Labs operates in the United States, it has to operate under the laws and regulations of the United States. Much as it pisses me off, that's the way things work here. It's quite possible that Linden Labs was hit with threats by certain groups that are in power now and decided to react in this way in order to stay in business.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7779588274142797600.post-63609369028765867472007-06-03T02:07:00.000-07:002007-06-03T02:07:00.000-07:00They have the Teen Grid.

They don't look kindly at 'engaging consumers in maximizing brand value' when the Xcite parts are whispering to one another and the phallus (phalluses? phalli? -just what is the plural of that... oh, right... pricks) are flying through the air during the press conference.<BR/><BR/>Couple with the pedophilia witch hunt that makes for great tv ratings and no apparent pre-thought to the issue nor collective spine, and you've got Linden Labs embarking on a quest to observe and exercise God-like critique on the bedrooms of the world.<BR/><BR/>Were Linden Labs under my paws, the issue would have been dead simple.<BR/><BR/>You must be 18 to enter.<BR/>You can only do something to which the other party consents to.<BR/>If the owner of the land is not okay with what you're up to - take it somewhere else.<BR/>If the majority of neighbours are objecting - put up a wall so they don't have to see it.<BR/>If the majority of neighbours are fine with what one neighbour's up to and you're the lone party offended, put up your own wall or move somewhere else.<BR/><BR/>So long as it's all consenting parties involved - it is nobody's damn business.<BR/><BR/>Look - I don't like the idea of child AVs engaged in sexual relations. I used to work for a clinic who primarily worked with the victims of such abuse and the though of it literally makes me ill. BUT - they are not really children. If that's how they choose to interact, both parties are consenting and it's on their own property or the landowner has no objections ... THEN IT'S NOBODY'S DAMN BUSINESS. Not mine. Not Linden Labs. Not anyones.<BR/><BR/>I know Linden Labs would like to tame the west quickly so they can get to the prosperous civilization stage - but seriously they need to put a little more thought and planning into this because now the gate is wide open for any blow hard to try and force their personal hangups on everyone's dream and fantasy life.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05953992301216444281noreply@blogger.com
