As we used to say, "MMORPG means Many Men Online Role-playing Girls".

Which has went in a couple different directions, looking back.

Ah, the Internet. A place where the men are men, the women are men, and the children are FBI agents.

Girl is internet acronym for Guy In Real Life

Small headcanon:Everyone (that doesn't has a revealed gender) online is a woman until proven otherwise.

Two dudes cybering lesbian porn at each other describes half the content of Literotica.

Eventually they'll both think a little more deeply about why they """pretended""" to be girls online. ๐Ÿค” ๐Ÿ˜Š

Ever deliberately let yourself get catfished by an insta "girl" just because they'll listen to you and act interested in your life for a while?

Because I haven't.

Pretending to be a girl for free handouts in MMOs was peak metagaming.

Those guys scissored so hard they bought a Subaru together

[-] Suavevillain@lemmy.world 38 points 10 months ago

There is a bad bitch inside of all of us lowkey. But at least in RPGs I like to be a chick because I usually like the clothing options.

just to get items

also some minor mental illnesses but we don't talk about that

[-] shneancy@lemmy.world 33 points 10 months ago

honestly when i was a kid i always picked male characters (despite being afab) because "the clothes looked better", fast forward a couple of years, i transitioned to male and i realised i used video games as my main escape from worsening gender dysphoria

[-] absentbird@lemm.ee 18 points 10 months ago

I knew a guy who used that exact same reasoning to play female characters. It's funny how the way you want to look in a videogame can sort of tap into subconscious desires sometimes.

"Obviously I couldn't dress like that IRL because of gender rules, but since I can choose my gender in this game..."

It's sort of like The Button thought experiment.

[-] WeLoveCastingSpellz@lemmy.dbzer0.com 16 points 10 months ago

same as an amab I always used to play women cause they got better clothes. I am not trans tho, I mean probably not.

[-] TheSlad@sh.itjust.works 14 points 10 months ago

Girls just have better clothes in general. I like clothes shopping with my daughter all the outfits and dresses are so cute and fun, theres so much variety! Clothes shopping for my son is such a bore :/

For reference I am dad, and theyre both in elementary school.

also some minor mental illnesses

I don't like to call it "mental illnesses" because it makes it look like it's a property of the person; however, it is a property of society:

[-] HowManyNimons@lemmy.world 21 points 10 months ago

I often play RPGs as a female character, as a means of stepping outside of myself and actually, you know, role-playing. But I seldom play online games, and do not try to convince anyone that I'm a woman irl.

Still, it's interesting how people assume that because I've chosen to spend my game time watching a female avatar run about, I must be a woman. I've been in some sticky situations, but none thus far involving anyone claiming to be lesbian.

[-] SkyezOpen@lemmy.world 14 points 10 months ago

"If I'm gonna stare at an ass for hours it may as well be a hot one" is a reason I've heard.

The last descendant seems to be leaning hard on that demographic as well. The outfits are... Basically shovelware mobile game coomer shit.

There are a few reasons I can think off:

  1. Trick people;
  2. Get items;
  3. ~~egg~~ Experimenting the thought of not being your current gender.

But just like the anon described, it's one of the first two.

[-] AVincentInSpace@pawb.social 24 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

Fake: anon would not pretend to be gay up through the point of lesbian cybersex

Gay: I don't see how this story could possibly be any gayer

[-] Zacryon@feddit.org 20 points 10 months ago

How did it end? Did they date then?

This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.
