well as i see it, role playing is not at all about role playing yourself. Its about playing a role, whatever that role is.

I played a bad ass chick in KOTOR when im a nice guy in real life. its just interesting to see whats different. you can play whatever role you want to.

If all guys went guys and all girls went girls. Then there would be a total of like 5% females in these games.

if you build a friendship with a character in a game, until you know the person behind it, thats all it is. a friendship with a character in a game. if you are a guy who decides to hit on a girl in a game. If the girl is controlled by a dude it doesnt make you gay. the game universe is totally seperate to the real world. when i play these games, im pretty sure that all the friends i made were controlled by people i would never talk to in real life, they might be boy racers or wiggers or whatever, i dont care because in the game world they are orcs or druids or warriors etc. and thats it.
