Back in my day, male avs couldn't wear certain items that were female only and vice versa! /shakes cane
Thankfully now that everything is unisex, we are free to wear whatever the hell we want. Sometimes I feel like I'm playing a guessing game with people's avs though. There's so many body mods out now that no matter what your base is, your av ends up looking a million times different. Without body mods, there's always tell-tale signs if a base is male or female...
Nowadays though, it's almost impossible to guess genders. Does this bother you at all? We used to be able to tell if users were male or female based off of their avatars (if they were using their actual gender, that is.) But now it's just a free-for-all. I don't personally care, but I'm interested to see how other people feel.
For hilarity purposes, this is what my av base looks like:
How important is your av base's gender to you?
How often do you use body mod items?
Cross-dressing? 8D
Is it important to you that your av be the gender that YOU actually are?
Does it make you uncomfortable when you find out a user is not the gender you thought they were?
