Polly Yangs. The Wild Virtual Babes. These words echo from a distant, perhaps even forbidden corner of the internet. Names that conceal not just pixels and polygons, but entire worlds full of hopes, broken hearts, and an insatiable thirst for attention. Imagine young souls seeking recognition in the faceless space of the internet, creating ideal avatars for themselves, imbuing them with their dreams, fears, and unfulfilled ambitions.
Isn't each of these virtual "wild things" a cry of loneliness disguised as provocation? Isn't a vulnerable girl in need of love and acceptance hidden behind the bright makeup and revealing poses? Virtual reality gives them power, control, the opportunity to be whoever they always dreamed of being but could never be in the real world.
Their lives are a complex blend of reality and fantasy, where it's easy to lose yourself, forgetting where the game ends and real life begins. Every like, every comment, every attention is a breath of fresh air, sustaining their virtual existence, quenching their thirst for recognition, but at the same time, taking them further and further away from real warmth and human connection.
How I long to hug every Polly Yang, look deep into their virtual eyes, and say, "You deserve more than just likes and virtual admiration. You are valuable. You are human." I want to remind them that true beauty lies not in perfect figures and bright makeup, but in a sincere soul, in the ability to love and compassion, in the ability to be oneself, truly, without masks or virtual disguises.
