hmmm, I don't really think that's a universal truth.
Having said that, if that's what you want (not sure how to read that that sentence) then go out and get.
Unless you are a priest then I completely understand.
Well...it's difficult. I...this whole thing is kinda difficult for me. Fvck.
I definitely want more initiative from the other side in this matter.
Also, who said it was universal, it is just my completely subjective experience.
Edit: Also, I wish it was that easy. Especially when I don't seek pure One Night Stands.
I was responding to your last line which wasn't clear if you were saying that as a Universal truth or your experience.
Also, remember, there is a lid for every pot. Something I've learned over my years of dating.
Lastly, go to your female friends and pick their brains. Maybe you put out a vibe that seems "standoffish" or unapproachable.
It's a solvable problem if you think it's a problem you want to solve. Off topic but "good luck!"

If I had (female) friends, I prefer to have acquiantances and to have my own little freedom. Otherwise it could be easy.
And dating? How is that even done? Go to a random...social place? Sounds so not me.

I believe I'm with you here.
Sex means more to me than simple "mutual orgasms." It is one expression of my love for another. I know society celebrates the sexual revolution, but like many things in life, that passed me by, too. How old fashioned and outdated... "sex only for expressing one's love." So last millennium
I hope I'm not way off-base here
Very nice. Though, it's not really that. I don't really feel good about...it's my fabled "love" of new things* showing again, probably. It's not even about power vacuum, it's about an extremely new experience with potentialy far reaching consequences. I...don't even look for defacto relationship, the more freedom, the better.
*What exactly happened to me and my Openness to New Experiences?

Egotism is the anesthetic that dullens the pain of stupidity, this is why when I try to beat my head against the stupidity of other people, I only hurt myself.
Second Life takes sex in MMORPGs to a whole new level. So may sizes and shapes, positions and places. They used to have brothels with real people working.
Vault-Tec analysts have concluded that the odds of worldwide nuclear armaggeddon this decade are 17,143,762... to 1.

Yah, it was during a late night with Johnny Carson, promoting his book, where he talks about having sex with a million women.
and he made that remark.. again. paraphrased.
Egotism is the anesthetic that dullens the pain of stupidity, this is why when I try to beat my head against the stupidity of other people, I only hurt myself.
I will not object to that, but it's best when you have both. When one feeds off another. Like how lingerie and tease are 10000x more sexy to me than pure nudity.
Have you ever noticed that MMO's try to dance the line of nudity, with very few exceptions, like Conan, and Rust, for example.
I wonder why that is, that there is sexualization with skimpy outfits and people (mainly females) going off to fight dragons in what amounts to 3 postage stamps and shin guards.
I mean, it is some nudity rule, like I know in some Asian countries you can show all the "Almost" nudity you want, but anything that shows actual nudity needs to be censored.
and also, why aren't guys sexualized as well?
The sexualization of women in media has been a cultural norm for quite some time, with that of men nowhere near as much. This is just a continuation of that in yet another medium. Basically, it is what it is and has been and will be.
Sex, in particular the female sex, sells... up to the point where it would diminish overall revenue due to the impairment of sales due to external factors.
Also, what better for your sexually attractive female character than an alluring wardrobe to barely go along with? Cue cash shop sales. I have far less in the way of outfits for my male characters than my girl for her female ones.
I think, and this is just me, that if I was planning an MMO, where I could have my big beefy barbarian dwarf wearing a hot pink butt floss thong as they bull rush and jump into the air doing an axe cleave attack on a BAM, the insecure manbabies that could not handle seeing my hairy ass cheeks flap in the wind as I fought, would not be playing that MMO to start with, and the culture would overall be better.
I expect if that went on for long the number of people playing that particular MMO would be rather low, so the culture would overall be absent.

So, what you are saying, is that the problem is insecure fragile male egos that exist among males who MMO's, that could not handle men being sexualied right along with women.
Seems like a silly reason, IMHO.

So... A man who does not "enjoy" seeing a naked male body is "fragile" in your eyes?

Personally the only modern MMORPG trend that annoys me is the idea that MMOs need to be designed in a way to attract people who don't actually like MMOs. Which to me makes about as much sense as someone trying to figure out a way to get vegetarians to eat at their steakhouse. - FARGIN_WAR

Any man that embraces the objectification/sexualization of a female, and not equally so a male.. Yes.. they have a very frail ego.. like Thin untempered glass that shatters at the tiniest little poke.
Egotism is the anesthetic that dullens the pain of stupidity, this is why when I try to beat my head against the stupidity of other people, I only hurt myself.
and you know, I totally get it if some of you all disagree, but as I see it, if the Armor exposes the buttcheeks on the female character, it should also expose the buttcheeks on the male character.
I am not against sexualization, or against complete modesty, I just think it ought to be fair.
If the armor is going to be high fantasy sexualization, let's go down that road for both men and women.
If the armor is going to look realistic like it will actually protect you, let's go down that road for both men and women.
I don't think that is an unreasonable stance.

So, is Miss Universe an example of sexualization or of celebration of beauty?
Great example of a form of equality.
You Have Miss Universe & Mr Universe.
Now, I am sure many of you know of the Mr Universe, with famous winners like Arnold Schwarzenegger (Conan) and Lou Ferrigno (The Hulk).
Arguably, if someone would feel that women lined up in bikinis being judged by their physical attributes is acceptable, why should they have an issue with a man wearing speedos and having the same done to them.
And for many, seeing men compete for who has the most beefcake, is a thing, and a very popular thing at that.
As how many of you even know of any Miss Universe winners? Which kind of makes a point that competitions that objectify men are widely accepted and embraced.
Now, along that vein of beefcake, you also have Miss and Mr Olympia, as well as competitions like Miss & Mr Fitness
So.. we put a bunch of big beefy dudes on a stage wearing a speedo and told them flex for all they were worth.... Sexualization or celebration of the body?
Enjoy the Show

Celebration of beauty.
As long as people treat the contestants well, don't take their humanity for granted, and the contestants genuinely love doing it, I think it's fine.
We are visual and sexual beings (more or less and one's mileage may vary but in general that's what we are) and I see no reason to demonize that fact just because some people feel very uncomfortable with it existing.
Now, if those involved were treated as less than human, not given their rights and were not a willing participant then that's a problem.
