I took this
assignment out of personal curiosity, because I'll admit to having sat around
with my friends and discussing this. Everything from a certain color that may catch
the eyes or a man that is talkative in nearby chat...
I look in nearby and
check out profiles, but that is me. I wondered what other women thought when
meeting a man and was able to legitimately ask, lol. Some answers may surprise
you, while others are a bit expected. I mean do they want a man that will give
in to their every whim or a man that is going to challenge them each time they
turn around?
A man that will spend many L's to keep them happy, or a man that
will walk around in the same suit each day?
Saraelizabethe is six months old, in a
vampire clan and getting ready to join her man in Second Life Matrimony. Of
course I had to ask.
Cc: What do you look for in SL men?
Sara: A good heart.
Cc: Do they have a certain way of showing they
are good hearted on SL? Is it harder to judge than RL?
Sara: It's how they
treat a person and yes.
Cc: May I ask since you are getting married,
was there something specific that struck you about your man? The moment when
you realized he was good hearted?
Sara: He is good to
me, he listens to my concerns and makes me laugh when I am down.
Faye is 4 years old, and a hostess at Breaking
the Rules rock club. As a hostess, I have seen they are exposed to men of all
sorts in clubs.
Cc: First off, have you ever been partnered on
SL?
Faye: Yes, I have.
Cc: What kind of man do you look for? What
attracts you to men on SL?
Faye: Someone kind,
honest, and romantic... Someone old school, who knows how to treat a lady.
Cc: Do you talk to them first or do you expect
them to approach you?
Faye: Well, it depends
on the mood, if they are taking too long and I am interested I will definitely
approach them.
Cc: Do you have a general idea after the first
meeting whether they are partner material or not?
Faye: Yes, I
definitely do. Men on here are not very hard to read.
Cc: Do you think it is harder to judge men on
SL than RL?
Faye: I think it is
easier here, sure there are distractions, but not as many as in real life.
DJ Frenchie Fry works at Exodus Rock Club, she
is 5 years old.
Cc: What do you look for in men on SL?
Frenchie Fry: Well, I
don't really look, but have to have an updated and attractive avi, personality,
and humor.
Cc: Do you think it is harder judging a man's
character on SL compared to RL?
Frenchie Fry: No, cuz
I am a very good judge of character.
Cc: Awesome... Would you ever consider dating
a noob?
Frenchie Fry: No,
noobs are annoying.
Cc: Lol, because you have to teach them?
Frenchie Fry: Yeah,
and I don't have patience for that.
Poppy maladay is also another woman that has
been around Second Life for awhile. She is an avid blogger: http://poppymaladay.blogspot.com/
Cc: Have you ever been partnered on SL?
Poppy: Yes
Cc: Are there certain things you look for or
that attract you to men on here?
Poppy: Yes, and they
are similar to things I would look for in a real life partner: Sense of humor
and stability.
Cc: Do you think it is harder to judge men on
SL than in RL?
Poppy: Yes, because
you cannot read body language cues and things to help you figure out whether
they are a player or a good guy.
Cc: Do you think the avi looks affect your
decision whether you talk to him or not?
Poppy: Again, like in
RL, the physical appearance is like the bait to get things started, but I would
say appearance, to me, means much less here, you can always fix them up if they
have the worthwhile traits and seem worth the time.
Gabriella Rossello is a year old, a lycan, and
dabbles with BDSM on SL.
Cc: What do you look for in a man in SL?
Gabriella: What do I
look for in a man in SL... hmmm. Honesty is the most important thing for me...
Lie to me and then they can all find out that my backside is more than just
cute as that is all they will see again...
Cc: Is it easier to judge men on SL than in
RL?
Gabriella: Either way
it's hard, but harder in SL because they can hide behind an avi and computer
and be whomever they want.... Hard to tell if you are getting what you see.
Cc: Do you think what an avi looks like
matters?
Gabriella: As in
everything in life there are preferences... Yes I have them in an avi, but
there is always wiggle room, because I myself can be silly and have fun
experimenting with my avi, but I have a base one.
So there's a few points of view guys, seems
like pretty simple things to look for. Remember next time you are talking to a
lady that everyone has a different preference: to each their own. So don't be
put off, there is thousands of people on SL and as in real life, there's
someone out there for everyone.
