Guys with girl av's?
 
I am lost I suppose (or old) but I just do not get it.

I have noticed this at times in different communitys, and wonder why a guy would want to have on a girls av (my guess can not be correct as many as I see)

Insite please? (yes it baffles me)

Ask Brad. :D

vBintense 08-05-2005 04:57 AM
/me looks for brad (would brad be a girl or guy av?)

Biker_GA 08-05-2005 06:41 AM
How about girls who use an avatar of a guy? :D

Blam Forumz 08-05-2005 07:08 AM
How about guys who pretend to be girls then get unmasked and call people gay because they found out that they we're a guy o.O

Possible reasons:
  1. They are queer
  2. They think the girl is hot
  3. They like the show the girl is from

I'll take what's behind door number 2, Wink! ;)

Dean C 08-05-2005 09:12 AM
Avatars are an expressive form of emotion.

Boofo 08-05-2005 09:14 AM
And what does yours express Dean? ;)

Logikos 08-05-2005 09:48 AM
Dean is expressing that he is a Lonely Moderator. Boobfew is expressing that he is old, Danny.VBT is expressing his obsession with Cherry's, Tony G is showing his love for dolls. Oh, and people that don't have avatars just feel no emotion :p

nexialys 08-05-2005 10:54 AM
being a false girl is good for noobs that think they will recieve more help because they are feeble... ... i would recommand these guys to call themselves "brave turtles" instead...

Tony G 08-05-2005 01:49 PM
o_O

I don't understand why there's a problem.

It's an image, just accept it.

I never said it was a problem, I found it interesting so many do it, so I possed a question.

Some guys go with the slut-girl images because they like to stir things up and they get young men more riled up when they act like a hot babe.

Real women can generally spot a fake, but I have been fooled before by people doing just what nex said - posing as a female to get more help in irc or on a forum.

Brad 08-05-2005 04:55 PM
We are trying to hide from the crazy women.

Chris M 08-05-2005 05:08 PM
And end up attracting the other kinds of crazy :p

Would you prefer for a guy to have a picture of brad pit in their avatar?

It does not honestly matter to me what someone has as avatar, it was merely a point of interest.

For example long ago a chat I would frequent one guy I knew wore an avatar of a girl (he ended up a she after some time at the doctors)

But I know this can not be the case as often as I see it these days, so I was interested in why the trend.

Yes I am a curious one, I like to know why ;)

Curiosity killed the cat... what if someone doesn't want you to know they're gat and you just made it obvious to everyone?

vBintense 08-05-2005 10:25 PM
[high]* vBintense thinkings on that.
[/high]

Any how it was an example of one case I knew, and I believe it can not be the case due to as many I see.

And remember, satisfaction brought the cat back ;)

It depends on what your definition of an avatar.

From dictionary.com:

Quote:
av?a?tar ( P ) Pronunciation Key (v-t?r)
n.
The incarnation of a Hindu deity, especially Vishnu, in human or animal form.
An embodiment, as of a quality or concept; an archetype: the very avatar of cunning.
A temporary manifestation or aspect of a continuing entity: occultism in its present avatar.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[Sanskrit avatra, descent (of a deity from heaven), avatar : ava, down + tarati, he crosses; see ter-2 in Indo-European Roots.]

That's the original definition. It's a spiritual term.

However, for online computing:

Quote:
avatar

1. <chat, virtual reality> An image representing a user in a
multi-user virtual reality (or VR-like, in the case of
Palace) space.

2. (CMU, Tektronix) root, superuser. There are quite a
few Unix computers on which the name of the superuser
account is "avatar" rather than "root". This quirk was
originated by a CMU hacker who disliked the term
"superuser", and was propagated through an ex-CMU hacker at
Tektronix.

(1997-09-14)

Originally it's meant to be an image representing a user in a virtual online space.

[high]* Brad wonders if anyone remembers hacking in avatars. :D[/high]

Boofo 08-06-2005 03:10 AM
/me steps up to answer that but then realizes it would REALLY be showing his age.

Azhrialilu 08-06-2005 07:03 AM
I went ahead and asked some of the guys on one of the forums I run where a few of them have female av's.... the general consensus is that they chose them because they like looking at them LOL.. so it's official, men who use female av's are lust-driven perverts ;) (*hastens to add "joke!!!!!!!!" before I get chased with pitchforks or something*)

On another point brought up in this thread, ALL women are crazy... and beware the ones who deny it - they're the worst of all! (I can say this with complete sincerity, being female and .. yeah... as crazy as they come) But hey, crazy is good.... you can have lots of fun with crazy people ;)

I see.

Well mine is of Japanese Pop star Ayumi Hamasaki. ^_^

I like her, therefore my avatar is of her.

Need more reason? :p
