I haven't actually seen any reports...@Kristjan<br /><br />I haven't actually seen any reports on to what extent female to male crossdreamers make use of Second Life or online games to test out the masculine side of their identity. Maybe we could ask around in one of the "girlfag" forums.<br /><br />What I do know is that some of them dress up for so-called cosplay conventions, where they play the role of their favorite male manga character. This is an amazing world, indeed!Jack Molayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03629363646482611722noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2472400923228993687.post-44820453105185871232012-10-10T21:43:11.234-07:002012-10-10T21:43:11.234-07:00For some maybe its to much work to go all out femm...For some maybe its to much work to go all out femme in RL so one magic click online does the trick and then spend lot of time online because of it. How long will it be until they develop virtual reality were men can actually feel the female character they are playing?<br /><br />And what about girls that love playing Super Mario games do they want become men?Kristjan Birnirhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00883549055603648083noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2472400923228993687.post-85366929945871720932011-12-10T05:11:36.126-08:002011-12-10T05:11:36.126-08:00@Thorin

Not because the men watching the movies want to be female, but because they like seeing the beauty."<br /><br />I think that might perfectly well be the case for the majority of male bodied persons who take on a female avatar. <br /><br />But I have enough transgender M2F friends who take part in Second Life and play such games to know that for them it is also a way of expressing their female self. <br /><br />In many ways it has become an alternative to crossdressing and writing TG stories and captions.Jack Molayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03629363646482611722noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2472400923228993687.post-35807687546417836862011-12-06T12:23:24.732-08:002011-12-06T12:23:24.732-08:00I just did a similar post about this myself.

You commented that some people do it because they like looking at the beautiful woman rather than the actual man, but then you said they are looking at "their own" bottom etc. But really it's no different than watching a movie with a woman main character. Why do you think there are so many action movies with females as the main fighting character? Not because the men watching the movies want to be female, but because they like seeing the beauty. I think it's the same thing for most men playing women in games.<br /><br />However, for myself, I'm still trying to figure out if that is all it is, or if I like pretending to be a woman for a while in the game. As a past crossdresser it's hard for me to know.Thorin25http://healingcd.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2472400923228993687.post-37263720869332526302011-02-13T23:52:53.252-08:002011-02-13T23:52:53.252-08:00I really have to try this out.

What was beginning as a Experiment and with curiosity, is now becoming a part of my own. Its not just Fun, it makes my Soul relaxing. like i am at home. <br /><br />Sometimes i was thinking about my Real Life and how much female i like to bring into it. Actually i didnt does it, but i am daily think about it. <br /><br />I enjoy me Female Virtual Life and i never wanna miss it.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01423707721469576409noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2472400923228993687.post-62566054132217424382010-06-05T03:02:29.300-07:002010-06-05T03:02:29.300-07:00To rosepuddle,

However, I wouldnt say I am not bisexual.<br />Infact, I am straight in that I am predominantly attracted to fermale beauty adn I am quite sexual with girls.<br />However, I also get a huge turn-on on imagining myself as a feminine object being prowled by a perv man. I have<br />had these fantasies ever since teenage began and they have never gone away. Sometimes I felt as if I was indeed <br />more gay than straight when these fantasies occupied most of my day dreams. At other times, when I am around women,<br />I dont get them and I then begin to feel more manly. I guess I have a man as well as a frivolous girl inside me.Mandynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2472400923228993687.post-15353006001358604482010-06-05T02:07:47.791-07:002010-06-05T02:07:47.791-07:00I like playing as a female character in mmorpgs.

It's just fun to be a girl, if only cosmetically.<br /><br />I think this is why most male players play female avatars, whether they admit it or not.rosepuddlenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2472400923228993687.post-67567929404796656862010-02-03T23:05:31.056-08:002010-02-03T23:05:31.056-08:00You are right.

I know I used to play as chun-li in street fighter not necessarily because I like being female, but because she could bounce around like a cat, very nimble, which of course was the complete opposite of the male characters who seemed to all just have brute force punches.<br /><br />Second life is an interesting world to explore. You can be anyone, and you choose what you want to reveal. I myself have enjoyed playing as a male character, and using clothing/body scripts to instantaneously morph myself into a girl character, complete with very feminine attire.tg_captionerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15015206450712314680noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2472400923228993687.post-37638780344855698202010-01-21T19:34:41.803-08:002010-01-21T19:34:41.803-08:00Honestly, I like playing as female characters onli...Honestly, I like playing as female characters online. I feel very uncomfortable and constrained trying to play as men and I tend to prefer the social aspects of such games anyway. So the guys will go out and grind away and I will support the group as kind of a motherly figure and it feels so good :) Besides, I love to chat for hours :)GenderQuestioninghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07966407055595576955noreply@blogger.com
