Just An Outfit Of The Day #4

Just An Outfit Of The Day #2

Let's be honest, Second Lifeā„¢ isn't a properly fulfilling substitute for a happy real life, but who can blame us for escaping into this fantasy world even if it doesn't truly promote mental health. Many of us will create a Second Life that is so painfully perfect, our real lives will never measure up to... Continue Reading →

Nailing it

In Seconde Life nail polish on male avatars is as controversial as chopping down a tree, putting it indoors and festively decorating it around Christmas time. It's about as shocking as making the statement that the pope wears a lot of white. For some reason however, a man wearing nail polish in real life, risks... Continue Reading →
