I am a woman. I tried Facebook, and I’d get NO likes to a point I got off it for a long time, wondering why I’d bother.
Women have been known to go to others in all kinds of circumstances.
Well, if you have a man with a problem, he may keep the problem to himself, compartmentalizing it. Men often separate areas of their lives.
Women, on the other hand, tend more frequently to go to others to ask for (name removed by moderator)ut in problem solving, and look for info, reassurances, that men often just don’t do.
It’s hard with men’s posts, since they can be quite brief.
I write my brothers. Often they don’t write back. IF they write back, it is often just a short sentence or a
WORD! There’s not much meat for me from, say, “Good”!
They are into the “bottom line”.
One of my brothers was commenting on that. He said someone did a study on the length of time men speak to their families, say, on the phone, as opposed to women. Women will often spend, on average, 30 min./call with family. Men spend more like…30 sec! lol
Some men will surprise me, though, but they are more the exception.
I think on Facebook, people look for people who are into the same interests. Often, much of it, to me, can come across as quite superficial.
Went for smoothie…
got back…
THAT will get “likes”!
I will put something more profound, and nobody will care!
So, don’t overestimate the …I was going to say “intelligence”, but that isn’t the word, either.
Okay, think of it this way. There will be some epic, classic movies, that, to me, should be popular. NO! It will be some ridiculous, superficial thing, that I can’t believe people actually spent money to see!
Especially in this day and age, don’t worry so much about being popular. Look at who is popular…Lady Gaga?!
Yeah, people like her probably get a lot of “likes”, but would you like to imitate her?
If that’s what I need to do to be popular, I’d rather be
UNpopular!
As to women…I have noticed you have posted post after post about women. I am coming to the conclusion there’s something there.
Well, one post will ask why women are “cold” when they break up. Another will ask why they string men along. Another will ask why women get all the “Likes” on FaceBook. There appears to be a recurring motif, here.
Even if you had one…even more, bad experiences with women, doesn’t mean they’re all bad. Also, I don’t think women have it really inherently better than men, either. Both have hard roads.
Even if it were true that women did get more attention, so what? Who cares?
I saw a bumpersticker that said, “Less ‘FACE’ (What Facebook is often referred to as here in Mexico), and more book!”
I use facebook to communicate with people I want to talk to. (Mostly share photos of my baby.) I don’t feel the need to almenac my weekly menus and clothing choices. I don’t require or even desire constant affirmation on every detail of my life. I don’t think that sort of thing is very healthy either.
