Second Life Escorts - the real industry behind Second Life
It is quite interesting to read articles from english (= US based) newspapers and magazines and how German magazines describe Second Life. The interesting difference is: Sex. Or the absence when talking about it.Most american articles rarely mention that there is something in Second Life which has to do with Sex whereas the German articles most correctly state that there is also a lot of sex involved. Cheap sex to be precise.
If you look for most articles, SL is great because of the people, the land rentals and sales, some selling of goods and of course now the big companies coming into the game.
When in reality it is all about sex. gaming and clothes / enhancements for sex. The land rentals are only there to provide space and place for this and I would consider the sales for items non sex related to be rather small. *g*
Of course, that is not everthing, but seriously - I have never met so many cheap "escorts" as in there. Did I say cheap? When talking about prices for sex in Second life there are things you have to seperate.
There is the equipment necessary to 'perform' - I once wanted to buy a bed which was supposed to cost an outragous amount of money which I could not understand until I saw the poseballs ... Then, you have to dress up for your occassions but those prices are very cheap given the work involved for the artist. All of this has pricing which is in game levels - cheap but okay, these are items which are sold and resold.
If you want to go shopping a bit - use SLExchange to explore a bit of the real world out there in Second Life in the uncensored part of the boutique. ;)
[If you wanna buy something there, refer me with Nixande Teazle. And no, afaik they do not show what you buy they just will give me a commision] ;)
But there is one ressource which is sold ridicoulusly cheap. Second Life Escorts! If you want to buy sex as in 'see' someting and get some action as text? You can call a telephone sex hotline and get poor, or you swing over to one of the SL escort services - where the 'expensive' ones will cost you about 7 dollars an hour - 10 if you include tipping.
Remember that 1000 L$ is roughly 3-4 dollars and take a look around here. You get more working at McDonalds!
If you dig a bit deeper into the profiles of some of the Escorts you will notice that they also expand their services towards telephone - sorry skype sex. (You will also notice that the available few male escorts have even lower prices).
Nothing against a healthy industry but girls (and the boys in disguise) - at least take a fee which is worth your time! :o)

casandra kumusng 12 May '08 - 22:40 - So do you have any proof to back up the claims you make that most of Second Life consists of sexual material? ANy statistics or studies? Or is this just your personal experience? I bet it is your personal experience. Finding sex in SL is like searching for porn on the internet, you only find it if you want to find it, and just like the internet, sex occassionaly pops-ups like pop ups on an internet site.
SLis Fun 17 August '08 - 23:55 - Unfortunately I have to agree with the text. When I started playing second life I came across the following question: “I need a job.”
In the search for a job, professional as a dancer and a scort were the highest rated for a beginner, so I did not even know the existence of other professions … Today I am a dancer, I even have a blog:

I don’t do programs, but to men who insist, I say L$5000 …
Nathaly Kayor 26 October '09 - 06:17 - I know lots of people that are there cuz they love to create stuff, myself included, and lots of us have chosen not to have sex on sl cuz it’s just dumb. If you want to own a house in sl it doesn’t mean you want it to have sex there, I rent my house to use it as my building platform cuz I hate sandboxes :P and I make my rl living out of what I create :D Maybe the author has been just experiencing sex related things in sl and this has lead her to think everything in sl is about sex. Maybe she needs to look in other places.
