Why not. RL (Real Life) defines you with your gender, age, religion/politics, ethnic background, job/income and location. SL (Second Life)gives you a second chance to express yourself with LESS limits. Socialize and interact with other people from all over the world. You might even realize that all of the limitations you are wearing, some are coming from your own mind.
You don’t L@@K or act like a mermaid?
- Wearing legs.
- Out of the water/breathing air.
- Wearing too much clothing/wrong clothing (ex. necktie)
- Your BLACK!
Prepare yourself. Know that others are going to try and tell you how to live, dress, look and act in your fantasy life. My Bestest (no, I did not misspell that word, that is how we say it) friend in the whole world (RL and SL) is an SL Vamp. It was a surprise to both of us, that I decided to become a mermaid and not a vampire. REAL friends are supportive and happy for you!
