Why girls edit their photos on Facebook?

[Sombrero]

men, some chicks are so skinny that they put more fat then there are girls fat they need to be edited to look good. some girls are so damn good and they still do something . why???

Much like men who edit their photos, women do it for different reasons.

• Trends: For example, there was that silly thigh gap thing that was going on for a while.
• To attract a mate (or several): Enlarging bust, making themselves look curvier, etcetera.

• They think filters make them look better: I have a cousin who does this. I suppose filters can compliment the photos when used correctly, but that's usually not the case.
  
• They think they're models: Apparently, "Instagram models" are a thing now. I wouldn't be surprised if something similar were on Facebook as well.

• To cover up acne: Teen girls do this the most by making the photo brighter than it actually is. If you lower the brightness, sometimes you can uncover the acne.
  
• To slim down: Some people think they need to look like emaciated models for some reason. It's always obvious when their purported weight loss warps space and time around them.

• To appear thick: Again, space time warp.

On a side note, I personally find men editing their photos on Facebook funnier. They always try to add muscle, only for this to happen:

That's just a few, almost all the girls in my Facebook have edited photos cuz I'm good detecting those photos

to get more likes
but women tend to be more self conscious

Nobody's who they really are on FB anyway. Fake pictures for a fake personality.

Probably they watched too much TV reality and now they need to exist in the eyes of other people

Imagine to have a girlfriend or wife with a Facebook profile where she post photos then people judge her or comment like "u look gorgeous" "sexy as hell " etc.. I don't want that, they don't care about their well being

To be honest, nowadays, thanks to this plague Facebook, everyone is blindly addicted to the meaningless virtual incentives (likes/comments/shares etc). I guess most your girl friends in Facebook have higher level of addiction to attention whoring.

You have destroyed my trust in photoshop. Too much real life in this single post. Reminds me of the classic:

 

[Motherdex]

Back in my day I had to just post stuff to Myspace and live with it.. no filters, no editing, no puppy dog noses. It was rough but I still found a man (well I found him in a bar actually so my pictures on Myspace had little to do with it)

 

[nikchaing]

yea but you still had the myspace angles to work with

 

[Motherdex]

yea but you still had the myspace angles to work with

But I didn't even have a selfie stick.. it was awful... I had to use my arms and hands

Somebody mod this guy already! By far the most active and helpful member on BHW right now for both serious and non-serious posts.

I heard that if you get punched by him, you get sent 500 miles away through a dimensional warp.
