After all, virtual push-ups must count for something!

I’d also like to see female avatars able to hold their heads straight instead of the bent head, “just make me a victim,” design for them when standing…although, this may be because I tend to mix attributes in my avatars. Perhaps it’s intended to be a cultural trait. I still find it offensive.

From a marketing viewpoint it might require a lot of works for very few sales. Althou I’m pretty sure a significant number of users would be interrested in it. The other thing that might scare a dev from doing this is the predectable opinion backlash. We all know the proverbial few shoutings covering the silent majority.
Should it stop them from doing it? “Ethically” no. But their accountant might think otherwise.
Great article. Loved it. *hit share*
