The component of sexuality wasn’t as strong in my virtual world as I would have liked for this post. Many people in this world are goal and task oriented and the need for social stimulus and personal communication isn’t as high. Well I would say that communication was at a decent level but the realm of talking about personal preferences and sexual matters weren’t as evident. Some people would be outright hardcore about their sexuality from the jump though. I actually came in contact with a hardcore lesbian who would only accept women as her friends. I tried to send her an invite and she had some harsh words for me to say the least. She explained that she was not interested in any male genitals and did not want to have anything to do with any male player in the Cityville realm. She was outright and extreme about her love for women and women only. I had to respect it because I feel the same, but did not deny request from male players because I felt that the game was more based off of advancing your city by any means necessary which basically means make as many friends as possible. Also I came across a female gamer who was very interested in getting to know me better. She actually lived in Lima, OH, so I entertained the conversation. She often times sent me request for gifts and help in expanding her city. I was always one of the first to help her out because she was one of the few gamers that was willing to send me pretty much any item I needed for my city. She was the exact opposite from the lesbian gamer. She was much friendlier to males.
Question:
Did you come across any gamers in your virtual world that had sexual views that strayed from the norm?
