Oh i'm certainly not implying anything about feeling superior or more "civilized" or whatever I might consider as better from my culture. It's just that i'm not able to wrap my head around such a thing with my narrowminded western upbringing.

The psychology intrigues me to no end, but from a moral perspective it just doesn't sit right with me. But who knows, that kind of mindset might already be that much more developed and open-minded than where we're at in the West.

To say it's no different from the virtual world to escape life, seems like a rather blunt comparison, imo. Escaping into a virtual world is a decision made by yourself, while having a guy play your father or brother is something that is decided for you. So the lie has a completely different grounding and therefore a completely different ricochet-effect when confronted with the truth.
