Creating an Identity

  I find it so interesting when people talk about identity creation among cyberspace.  If you ask me identity creation is a great practice to try.  It doesn’t really even have to be that extreme, but for people who are shy, or don’t take any risks this can give them a chance to break free of their self-perceived stereotype. 

 

  Even people who like to go out and experience what it is like to be in the body of the opposite sex.  Obviously you wont be able to experience everything, but you might be able to pick up on little things.  Maybe you can take the time to analyze patterns you might employ and others find offensive, but you never would realize until you put yourself in someone else’s position.

 

  New identities come without boundaries as well, it allows people to do things that they might not be able to in real life.  For those who have physical restraints, they can gain the ability to be a fully functioning person, even though it isn’t physically real, it is virtually real, which to some people is more real than real itself.
