What is a hobby you enjoy, but seems too quirky or obscure to bring up in most conversations? (lemmy.sdf.org)

I have to admit, I am surprised that still exists, and also a little surprised it's not considered at least a little bit of a sex game (I mean, every MMO has ERPers, but in my head, I pictured Second Life as a bit more common for that kinda thing).

Sex is a thing you can do and it's part of the world, but it's as focused on as you make it. You can go your entire SL without having sex or engaging with sexual content if you choose. I know people who are family roleplayers and live their SLs as kids, and people who are just into art, or just into fishing and sailing. Sex is part of my SL but not the entire thing, just like RL.
