an avatar in second life

Funny article, which was based on "
A couple have divorced after the wife saw the husband having online sex in the virtual world of Second Life. So how do avatars have sex?"
Quote:
It is only to be expected in a world where players pick every detail of how their avatars will look, says Mr Mars.
"You can design any object. You can buy your own antlers, for instance. Sex has become a big thing [in Second Life] but I suspect it's full of teenagers, so that's no shock."
Some Second Lifers have been known to misbehave - a US journalist was attacked by flying penises when conducting an interview in his virtual office.
And infidelity is not the only thorny ethical issue thrown up by virtual sexuality - some players have had sex with animals.

I've never gotten into second life, but these kind of shenanigans don't surprise me.
