I found your comment on the lack of worry over the fantasy avatar very interesting. Personally, I found the creation of the fantasy avatar very frustrating because the lack of choices in the evolver program hindered me from seeing it as being fantasy. I also felt you accurately stated the issue of women not necessarily knowing or remembering what they really look like due to the buffering effect of cosmetics.

I think many people had the same issues with the hair styles and lack of eyebrow options. I believe you accurately described many issues that people had with the evolver software.

I am left unsatisfied by your choices for ‘external sources’. They do not add much to your reflection. They do not provide a break from your personal opinion as they were meant; they simply serve as things that influenced a few of your choices. Your reflection does not seem to be anchored in anything beyond you personally.

I also believe that someone’s choices in avatar characteristics can say quite a bit about them, especially in the fantasy regard. Quirky things like bunny ears can give you insight into their personality. I do not think looking for ‘complete understanding’ of a person is realistic, given that it is impossible to completely understand a person even in the living world.
