[19:11] Ding Atolia: we will attend parties together
[19:12] Susie223 Chun: yes?
[19:12] Ding Atolia: we introduce to each other our friends
[19:12] Susie223 Chun: sounds good
[19:12] Jessie Passerine: 1. Are you a transgender in real life? If yes, what kind of transgender?
[19:12] Susie223 Chun: Apart from the activities here, do you take part in other activities with people who are not transgender?
[19:13] Ding Atolia: yes, sometimes
[19:13] Ding Atolia: and we had fun
[19:13] Susie223 Chun: like what?

[19:13] Jessie Passerine: CD? TC? OR?
[19:14] Ding Atolia: like go singing or drinking
[19:14] Ding Atolia: things like that
[19:14] Susie223 Chun: I see
[19:14] Mi Shinn: is there something special about these activities?
[19:14] Mi Shinn: drinking and singing
[19:15] Ding Atolia: because i am not a transgender, so i cannot think of those sepcial activities
[19:15] Mi Shinn: you may wish to explore deeper into the answers
[19:15] Mi Shinn: because if you don't
[19:15] Ding Atolia: but i think in real interview, these questions are workable
[19:15] Mi Shinn: then your report will be dull and boring
[19:15] Ding Atolia: ok, so we can dig further
[19:16] Mi Shinn: ok
[19:16] Mi Shinn: keep up with your good work here
[19:16] Susie223 Chun: ok
[19:16] Jessie Passerine: do you like to wear males' outfit?
[19:16] Mi Shinn: these warm-up or ice-braking questions look good
[19:16] Mi Shinn: breaking
[19:17] Mi Shinn: kkep going
[19:17] Susie223 Chun: Are you led by others to come here or by yourself?
[19:17] Object: Touched.
[19:17] Ding Atolia: actually, i was told by a friend that i can have fun here
[19:17] Ding Atolia: so i come here
[19:17] Ding Atolia: and we really have fun.
[19:18] Mi Shinn: keep running your questions
[19:18] Jessie Passerine: in real life , do you find yourself different from the "normal"people? that is to say, do you have some interests or habits that others don't have?
[19:18] Susie223 Chun: so are you a transgender in real life?
[19:18] Mi Shinn: I will look around and see how other groups are doing
[19:19] Ding Atolia: no, i am not
[19:19] Mi Shinn: how's your role-playing?
[19:19] Mi Shinn: ruby
[19:19] Ding Atolia: i am here out of fun
[19:19] Susie223 Chun: then why do you choose to be transgender in SL?
[19:19] Susie223 Chun: out of fun or interest?
[19:19] Mi Shinn: both of you can run those questions together
[19:20] Susie223 Chun: ok
[19:20] Ding Atolia: I think it is fun
[19:20] Mi Shinn: then you can get a sense of it before you go to interview people
[19:20] Ding Atolia: and i'd like to meet people out of interest
[19:20] Susie223 Chun: i see
[19:20] Mi Shinn: did you start yoour questions?
[19:20] Susie223 Chun: What do you think about the present transgender situations in SL?
[19:20] Mi Shinn: Jessie?
[19:20] Mi Shinn: Ruby?
[19:20] Jessie Passerine: here~
[19:20] Ding Atolia: in SL, the environment is really great
[19:21] Mi Shinn: you need to role play and try to find out how those questions work
[19:21] Ding Atolia: much more freedom i think'
[19:21] Jessie Passerine: yes that is what we were doing
[19:21] Mi Shinn: what you might want to ajust
[19:22] Ding Atolia: and much more activities are conducted, and they actually many people
[19:22] Susie223 Chun: yes
[19:22] Mi Shinn: imagine that you are
[19:22] Susie223 Chun: that's true
[19:22] Mi Shinn: one can play the role of TG and the other the interviewer
[19:22] Susie223 Chun: and what do you think about the present transgender situations in RL?
[19:22] Jessie Passerine: maybe the quetions would be better justified if we ask TG in sl
[19:23] Mi Shinn: then you can change roles in the middle or at the end of the first set of questions
[19:23] Ding Atolia: well, even though we claim that we have broad minds today,
[19:23] Mi Shinn: just try to explore what answers you might have
[19:23] Susie223 Chun: yes?
[19:23] Ding Atolia: i don't think people in RL have already accept transgender
[19:23] Mi Shinn: and how to dig deeper into the issues/questions
[19:23] Ding Atolia: there are all kinds of discrimination existing
[19:24] Mi Shinn: sometimes you need to know when to ask further questions to enrich your report and information
[19:24] Ding Atolia: like they will be seen or talked as monsters
[19:24] Ding Atolia: abnormal
[19:24] Susie223 Chun: you mean as a transgender, it's easier for them to got more fun in SL
[19:24] Ding Atolia: yes, right
[19:25] Jessie Passerine: I think we need to know the response of the tg instead of just imaging
[19:25] Mi Shinn: yes
[19:25] Mi Shinn: sure
[19:25] Susie223 Chun: did you meet any difficultiy in SL
[19:25] Susie223 Chun: about your gender?
[19:25] Ding Atolia: in SL?
[19:25] Ding Atolia: well, let me think
[19:25] Mi Shinn: yes
[19:26] Ding Atolia: most time i had fun here
[19:26] Mi Shinn: but some students just failed bacause of no training and preparation
[19:26] Ding Atolia: but there's some time
[19:26] Jessie Passerine: so after the role play , the questions would be justified again if we ask the tg?
[19:26] Mi Shinn: but if you feel confident
[19:26] Mi Shinn: then go ahead
[19:27] Mi Shinn: it all depend on you
[19:27] Jessie Passerine: okay
[19:27] Mi Shinn: depends*
[19:27] Ding Atolia: i will feel arkward if i am around by many people
[19:27] Susie223 Chun: yes?
[19:27] Ding Atolia: but mostly they are out of courisity to ask me why i choose to be like this
[19:27] Mi Shinn: like I just mentioned last week
[19:27] Mi Shinn: some people don't care
[19:28] Mi Shinn: other people might think it is rude
[19:28] Ding Atolia: generally, i think in SL the situation is fine
[19:28] Susie223 Chun: then what’s your reaction towards those embarrassments?
[19:28] Ding Atolia: i will be myself
[19:28] Mi Shinn: it depends on who you meet
[19:28] Ding Atolia: enjoy myself
[19:28] Susie223 Chun: you mean ignore them?
