Were I to represent as, say, a black woman and RP it according to every cliche in the book, people would rightly view it as offensive and quiet possibly AR it. It's another curious example of how it's sort of open season on women in SL. I have fewer issues with my response if she was RPing. And I need to be better at not assuming that that kind of presentation is RP in SL, and just be generally nicer. Her response in the comments was not at all aggressive or defensive. And that is the source, mostly, of my regret: she's someone whom I'd like to talk to about her presentation of female sexuality, but mocking her as I did was not kind.
