My God, what hath Facebook wrought?

[Phillip V]

I think fatness definitely likes company.  If everyone around you is a bloated whale, then it almost becomes normal to be a bloated whale yourself.  Given that, I'm not sure that it's such a bad thing for Facebook to make people self-conscious about their inflated selves.

Agreed. Prior to Facebook, researchers found that people's self-image was actually skinnier than in reality. Older people also saw themselves as when they looked 10 years younger or more, especially a problem for women as they age.

Once past 45 or so, as long as a dude keeps himself in decent shape, he is far more marketable than a female at the same age.

Not really, at least the latter part:  you wouldn't believe the frigging battles women had put me through trying to get them to update their outdated ID badge photos.  Jesus H. Christ, it was a war every motherfucking day. 

SORRY LADY THIS ISNT 1997 ANYMORE THREE KIDS AND 10 YEARS HAVENT BEEN THAT GOOD TO YOU

Which says nothing that Facebook caused us to fundamentally change our self-perceptions.

That's the part I was calling silly and hence why I bolded it.
