Myspace Thugs & Cyber Divas

So it has officially been a year since I have first started this blog page back in last November. I never would have thought that I would have gotten over 7,000 hits in the time that I've been writing in it. It's been a tremendous experience to write things that I used to consider private for people I do not know to take the time to read. I thank those that have taken the time to contact me (via instant message, e-mail or comment) to express your comments about what material has been published for you to read.

I wanted to write about something today that I have noticed on Myspace and on other online communities as well. Why is that males and females alike both feel the need to exploit themselves on their personal pages? Why do certain males feel they need to promote this machismo role of taking pictures in mirrors of their firearms, and counting money? Why do females exploit themselves with pictures of themselves spread-eagle on their beds exposing their body parts? It's very simple; these individuals do these things because they need attention.

Males feel the need to exploit themselves with pictures of them counting hundred dollar bills and toting guns in their palms to attract women. Taking pictures in front of their overly-gaudy cars to attract women has become the norm on Myspace, Facebook, and other online arenas for people's interactions with each other. If you need to show off the money you have to get a female's attention, nine times out of ten the female that is attracted to you for these reasons is definitely not going to be worth the time and effort. You only attract what you put out.

Females taking pictures in pornstar-esque poses in front of bathroom mirrors of their homes only do this to get guys attention. Taking pictures of your breasts and buttocks only will only attract the raunchy guys that you are broadcasting yourself out to.

When did it become normal to exploit yourself for personal attraction? When did it become cool to take pictures of your guns, cars, clothes, and body to attract other people? Maybe, I am different in my approach to women, but I see absolutely nothing attractive about a female that has the audacity to broadcast explicit pictures of herself via the internet to gain popularity amongst their peers.

It's very simple; if you are looking for attention through material things that you possess, then you have a tremendous problem with your securities. If someone cannot be attracted to you for whom you are, then they should not be worth your time. Some of us need to grow up; taking pictures of yourself with guns and counting money will only attract the most plastic females. Posing with your ass in the air will attract the most raunchy males. Let's think a bit harder, people.
