We've all had the feeling that somehow we just didn't belong; that we'd been skipped over, left out, or ignored. Has it ever occurred to you that being on the outside is totally subjective? Maybe you're actually on the inside and it's the others who are missing out...

Photos ~ After I had finished this blog, I became aware that this was a "human only" sim. Those two little words were slipped into the middle of the notecard with a VERY long description given to me by the sim owner when he invited me to use his sims for my photos.
That's on me. I skimmed when I should have read carefully. Judging from my photos, I felt the rejection even though I wasn't consciously aware of it at the time.
My avatar has never been "human" and neither are most of my friends in SL, who are a delightful mix of faeries, elves, demons, furries, Dinkies, Tinies and other critters including a few humans, all of whom get along very well because we accept each other as individuals instead of as "types".

Since I don't want to appear to promote prejudice even when it's based on something as ridiculous as speciesism, I'm not including a LM and I won't be going back to this sim.
SL is a microcosm of RL; acceptance needs to be unconditional in both worlds. Prejudice can be felt even when it's hidden.
