Good stuff
I like it too.

It seems like a whole new topic has emerged. Ariputra, I'm not bothered by male users using female avatars, or vice versa, because I've gotten used to seeing them. I also know most of the people on the forum, so I know who's a gentleman and who's a lady. But when you're just getting to know people on the forum, it can be difficult to figure out who's who, especially if they don't have their name or gender in their profile, and their nickname is similar to yours. For example, I don't know what Ariputra is or what it means. Personally, I often ask people their names to make the virtual communication a little more personal. And as I see it, my comment about the avatar is what's bothering you more. You can relax; consider it just a thought I had out loud. I suggest we stop this off-topic argument.

And as I see, my statement about the avatar irritates you much more.

Actually, it doesn't irritate me; everyone thinks differently, depending on how corrupted they are. You should think well of a person until they prove otherwise. I think you are a good person.

and also, you have a similar nickname, I, for example, don't know what Ariputra is and what it means.

Ariputra
ari - Aryan (not a Nazi or fascist - a common misconception) - a moral, cultured, educated person. For example, an aristocrat is an Aryan in the hundredth generation.

putra - son
put - hell, ra - the light of the sun or liberation from suffering (three types of suffering - caused to a living being by the mind, other living beings, and the surrounding nature (earthquakes, floods, hurricanes, etc.))
that is, putra is the one who is qualified, trained to save his father, mother, other relatives if they, according to the law of karma, ended up in hellish planetary systems.
Of course, I am not an Aryan, but sometimes I really want to be one.

Ariputra doesn't irritate me now; I'm used to seeing female avatars on guys and vice versa.

Why did they irritate you before? (If something irritates you, it means that this problem exists in you too; otherwise, it wouldn't irritate you). Although, I still don't understand what exactly irritates you? I said that these are just my ideas about beauty, nothing more, nothing less.

You can relax, consider this a stream of consciousness. I suggest we stop this OFF-TOPIC argument.

Well, you're something else, who started all this:

What's with the trend (and it was a trend) of guys putting up female avatars... I wonder what motivates guys who do this (besides gays and those who love their significant other unconditionally)...

and now you want to change the subject, it's not me, it's not my cow:D

Oh...

It's enough to miss one day on the forum...
No, you guys are cool, I definitely like you.
Especially those with female avatars :smile04:
With your permission, I moved the off-topic discussion here: Tribuna

and he could have banned me instead

you won't understand, that's all... it's like a reflection of the inner world, like an artistic perception...

It's enough to not show up on the forum for a day...
No, you guys are cool, I definitely like you...
Especially those with female avatars.

They're not female avatars; a woman would never (out of envy) put an image of another attractive woman as her avatar!

And in my opinion, a person puts the following as their avatar:
- something they identify with, someone they want to be
- or something they like, something that brings them joy and satisfaction :D
- or just something they enjoy looking at.

...or a peasant. Feel free to delete :)

About the AVATAR phenomenon: according to P. Kuzmov...

in my opinion, AVATAR can be defined (used) in a very diverse way...
-as a tool for psychological influence
Let me explain with an example from online poker - being a true pro, and believing that there are no small details, a regular player, based on the geographical, racial, age (and other) characteristics of the table, can change their AVATAR (... An AVATAR depicting a 3-4 year old crying baby, pathetically covering their face with their hands, will be more effective against a table with a predominantly female and/or parental composition; a semi-erotic AVATAR, ready to embrace two brutal KKs, will be more effective in another table) - again, depending on what emotions the AVATAR is intended to evoke on average - is it considered beneficial to anger this table, to evoke pity, to amuse, etc...?
From this point of view, a certain anomalous surge of female AVATARS (hmm...av-gav, a pun, by the way...) can be seen as a well-thought-out and skillful influence on our sexual instincts, "nothing personal, it's just war"...

Of course, there remain more prosaic motives for this anomalous AVATAR surge (with varying degrees of probability):

-an elegant virtual retreat and a skillful posing in the Childe Harold pose, like a "NotLikeEveryoneElse" attitude
-a herd mentality,
-e-e, let's say...latent sexual deviance,
-pornographic motives, similar to frivolous cards in a harsh male collective (army, prison, monastery),
-finally - not without some pathos:

reflection of the inner world as an artistic perception

But I will leave the detailed quasi-uno-pseudo-meta-scientific research of these motives to posterity - let them, not immediately, but in the near future - say, in about 1/8760 of a year - climb on the mighty shoulders of this work, weave even more combinations of letters, and reduce the entropy in the Universe a little more;)

-as a tool for psychological manipulation

With your avatar on the forum, you're probably trying to lull people into a false sense of security.

- that's what he identifies with, who he wants to be.

I completely agree!

You're probably trying to lull people into a false sense of security with your forum avatar.

Shhh... your eyelids are getting heavy...

...or a peasant.

Isn't that a peasant girl in your avatar?

I completely agree!

according to you, I see myself as an evil rabbit))):smile08:

stand at attention. align. be still.
at ease. dismiss.

I'll share my opinion too. A tornado is, in my opinion, the most beautiful phenomenon in the world, and I think everyone has at least once wanted to see it in person and chase after it. It's my secret dream, and my avatar represents it. :)

stand at attention. align. at ease.
dismissed. fall out.

That's all. I've said my piece. I feel better now. Now we can all go our separate ways! :smile26:
