I've only played Second Life once and wasn't too sure how that worked. I remember being given the choice between male/female but did see a few odd characters parading around the SL universe.<br><br>I guess that with the proper time commitment you can create pretty much anything in SL.<br><br>I've just downloaded the Mac version of SL, so I'll try to pop back in soon and get my character properly dressed.Carlos Granier-PhelpsFri, 10 Nov 2006 09:17:20 -0000http://red66.com/2006/11/an-informal-chat-with-second-life-creator-philip-rosedale/#comment-1475386&gt;&gt; you decide whether you want to be male, female or something entirely different, like a bug<br><br>one clarification - you have to be a man or a woman but can use the Second Life system to essentially turn yourself into other creatures by "dressing up" (uploading new clothes, "skins," attaching different objects to your body).
