Social Media And Female Self-Esteem

Social network mediums like Facebook and Twitter have contributed to the bloating of the American female ego by giving her access to the admiration of ARMIES of would-be suitors (the equivalent of a handful of suitors in pre-internet fame times), and to an emotional support system that numbers in the hundreds, even thousands, over the relatively tiny social circle her grandmother was grateful to have in her day.

Because people settle for a cloud of semi-anonymous followers that will merely say "I approve" en mass. People value that now. Its fucking disgusting. Facebook is narcissism anyway.

Corollary to the corollary to Maxim #22: The most effective measure society can undertake to increase the incidence of marriage and the quality of married life is to stop artificially propping up women’s self-esteems.

I worked in an office entirely made of women at one point. One of our clients invited the women to her wedding. I'm happy for her that she got married. But it was the only thing the entire office talked about for a year. Like they're all trying to crib off of even just knowing someone that achieved the "life goal" of marriage that so many women glorify and fetishize. It was sickening.
