Please can someone write me a quotation about how they can say things on line that they can't say in real life?

[ScummyMummy]

Need it for my dissertation. Please. My searching is not coming up with the goods but I know it's something that comes up on here quite a lot. Anyone want to tell me that online communication had advantages in one or two quotable lines? Gratitude will be yours forever. Oh and I need it quickly!

blimey i find it easier to say things in rl! online things get taken the wrong way easily!

no no no! be off with you southeastra come forth more helpful folk- tell me of all the things you reveal on here that you would never dare tell a soul in your real life f

sorry for rogue f

online communication can be advantagous to some people because the communication itself is controllable. the personality is also controllable.

so for instance - one could have online friends on MSN - you dont have to tell any of them you are online - even though you can see they are online - if you do not want to.

you can reciee e-mails but you dont have to send them back - becuase an e-mail is a "disposable" form of communication.

should somneone send you a real letter you would feel obliged - good manners etc - to ring them or reply.

there are no such standards with online communication.

personality - well take me for instance - on mumsnet i am a load mouthed opinionated tart. in real life it would take you at least 6 months to get to know me in this way.

it removes social barriers - and allows us to create barriers where there is no historical social ettiquate

You mean something general along the lines of how it's faceless and anonymous? Not an actual, specific quote that you're trying to find?

I want to include a quotation from an online user saying how it's faceless and anonymous and this is liberating, yes, moo.
And this is the one I have chosen:

online i am a loud mouthed opinionated tart. in real life it would take you at least 6 months to get to know me in this way.

Thank you custy.

cool. will you reference me as custardo?

See, if I'd done you one it wouldn't have had the word tart in it

Custard tart

I shall. Right- back to it. Am on proof reading and perfecting rush job. See ya later, all.

i think tconsidering the title of this thread you should really go look at the blow job thread. its completely a threa - a coversation between people who are enjoying the freedom of having littelembarassment becuase they dont have to face the person the next day in the co-op. its almost got a teenage giggly vibe to it - a chance for dults to really discuss what is usualy an undiscussable subject - when sober- so in summation we are allowed to do online with certain subjects only what we would consider inhebriated - so the internet takes away a level of our social conditioning
