Some of them have several albums of nothing but professional glamour photos, heavily photoshopped. Or 200 random webcam photos or bathroom-mirror self portraits

They do it because they want 700 guys whom they never met to write a comment like "babie you smokin hot!!" They delight at the attention they receive online because offline they're just plain Jane
This is pretty accurate summarization and this "attention w-h-o-r-e" mentality is also prevalent on Internet dating sites. I think some girls may not even be looking for a date, they just go on there to collect compliments. And the girls couldn't care less who is complementing them either. All that matters is collecting compliments for validation points either because they are insecure or feel the need to compete with other women out of jealousy.

Shine babe...I say shine....your only young once...once your old and take on that old 'spent' look...you'll wish you had enjoyed yourself more when you were younger or just photogenic...

Don't worry about people who tag you with names...they themselves have issues...

Shine, and shine while you can...

omg i so agree- my neighbor is 30 yrs married and does nothing all day...yet every frickin day i wld get a status update...like that her dog ate Karo syrup off her counter...

imo, FB is great for 11 yr olds.If a woman is 35-50 she can find healthier and more fun creative outlets

Not trying to be a hater...but there are so many pictures of people either making duck lips, "planking", or doing some other crazy pose...it gets old. If that's what they like to do, then that's fine. I don't hate them for it. But if I had a Facebook account, I'd probably hide their status updates.

now i understand what your saying at first i thought u was implying that anybody who posts their pics up is an attention ***** and i usually see that thrown at extremely attractive girls on facebook thats why i said hater

i hang out with lot of models and some of my friends have like 5,000+ comments on their pictures they cnat help it if men find them attractive

now if someone is uploading a picture with every status update then i get a little annoyed especially seeing how facebook now tells you everytime one of your friends uploads a new picture it gets on my nerves

only time i really get upset is when a fat or unattractive female posts pics at all it makes me I hate having to scroll real fast by their statuses as their updating thats why i only hang out with sexy model chicks

Ok, those statements are obviously a joke. Now I know this poster is questionable.
