Just to give you the flavor of the kind of guy I am:
I don't have facebook.
Well, that's not entirely true,
I have an account,
I just never bother looking at it.
So it stuns me the amount of time
people spend talking about social media.
I have taken people on 30minute trips where they spend the whole time
discussing, dissecting, and analyzing social media.
And by people,
I mean women.
Based on the conversations I've overheard driving for Uber
Social media is endlessly fascinating to women.
And the most amusing thing is how dismissive women are of men.
I almost never hear women discussing men on social media,
why?
Because as far as I can tell women have figured out
that there is nothing to figure out about men online.
Why did Steve say X on facebook?
Pretty simple.
It because he was either: Horny, hungry, or sleepy.
Great,
analysis complete.
Men have been solved.
Really, the only interesting subjects to women on social media are other women.
A single posted picture has an entire universe of questions attached to it.
Why did she post a pic of herself in that outfit at this time?
Is she trying to flirt with Katie's Ex?
Isn't that top a bit low and that skirt a bit high?
Is she trying to one up Susan for being mean to her last week?
Why didn't she share this photo with Jenn?
Is Jamie being sarcastic, joking, or sincere in the comments?
Wasn't that taken on the night she said she wasn't feeling well enough to go out?
Why did Kira like the post but not comment?
It seems the masculine approach to social media is about as sophisticated as a light switch.
On.
Off.
But women need a technical manual thicker than the spec sheet on NASA's Curiosity Rover.
