First off thanks for linking the Article, dick.

As for the Article itself, thats pretty much the way anonymity works. Of course people are going to act differently when they cant get in trouble, or risk having your feelings hurt.

Some people do report being more like their true self in cyberspace. If personality is constructed in layers, with a core or true self buried beneath surface defenses and the seemingly superficial roles of everyday social interactions, then does the disinhibition effect release that true self?

Some vacillate between feeling disinhibited and restrained as they move in and out of the various areas of their online lifestyle. They shift up and down what we might consider a disinhibition/inhibition continuum. However, others may feel both ways simultaneously within a particular environment or relationship. For example, you reveal intimate details about yourself to someone you meet online, but you won't give that person your phone number.

I've seen this pattern happen with tons of friends They're great people once you get to know them, but it seems like they live in a bubble. Then one day you ask if they want to hang out and "sorry, I have a date, met her on the internet".

A variety of factors contribute to self-boundary, including the awareness of having a distinct physical body, the perception via the five senses of an outside world, the feeling of a psychological distinction between what I know versus what others know about me, and the sensation of the physical/psychological self moving cohesively along a linear continuum of past, present, and future.

So my friends are insecure about them selfs? Not so sure about that one, but according to the Article they can pretty much freeze time and think of an acceptable answer. That makes sense, they don't have to worry about the bubble because theres nothing personal there, if the person they are chatting with doesn't like them they can simply stop communicating with them and not have to worry about what they are thinking since their relationship is online.

In most cases, though, these factors interact with each other, supplement each other, resulting in a more complex, amplified effect.

I think this is where the term "Keyboard Warriors" falls under. Specifically You don't know me(I'm 6'6 230lbs of pure muscle) and It's all in my Head(Thats not the way I see it, your wrong!)

I think this stuff explains why some people stick their cocks through glory holes at the peep show.



"It's well known that people say and do things in cyberspace that they wouldn't ordinarily say or do in the face-to-face world. They loosen up, feel more uninhibited, express themselves more openly. Researchers call this the "disinhibition effect." It's a double-edged sword. Sometimes people share very personal things about themselves. They reveal secret emotions, fears, wishes. Or they show unusual acts of kindness and generosity. We may call this benign disinhibition."
