    Forum avatars

    I always find the choice of avatar an interesting one, it kind of says something about the person and gives a little insight of their persona.

    Interestingly one of the things I have observed is that quite a number of the female population frequenting the forum choose to use one of beauty and seduction. I've met women who operate this way at work, the way they dress, the way they act, and whilst visually appealing to the majority of bystanders in the office (mainly the men), it does come across to me as a slight attention issue (although this may just be women in general).

    Additionally I've also noticed this same pattern on other internet forums over the years, I think if I ever embark upon some form of social/society research in the future I shall attempt to discover the reasoning behind this.

                I like having conversations about things like art. I find it difficult to relate to people who enjoy talking about things like - football and such
