Women Face The Facts About Facebook

I am 25, a mother of 3 boys, and have a full time job. Needledd to say when I do get those "few minutes" to myself, its usually on facebook, checking to see what everyone else is doing. And keeping up with my lil brother over seas!So, yes, i am totally in this group!!

I have a facebook account, and I do check it a couple times a day. Facebook is a good way for me to keep up with friends who live far away. It's a good place to post pictures, too. I've renewed friendships with people I haven't talked to in decades. And with the privacy settings, I feel I only have to reveal what I feel comfortable with.

It is so addicting... It's half out of boredom .. it is like checking the fridge 3x an hour, when nothing ever changes! I keep checking FB but no new comments or updates L)

After having children, I cut my work hours way down. I find FB a great link to the outside world, and a wonderful way to share pictures of the kids with grandparents and other family that don't live nearby. I do not, however, find it a necessity to friend everyone I have ever met or check it at all hours of the day.

I started on FB because my 17 year old is on it. Then I started trading pictures with a friend and some 100 friends later I now even have it on my phone. I am careful on it though. I only accept friend requests from people I know, not friends of friends. I stay off the aps and I would never post questionable pictures. I also am part of Lifechurch.tv and they use facebook to keep us up to date. In fact I live near Nashville and FB was a lifesaver in mobilizing volunteers and learning where and what was needed to help.

I only use facebook to talk to people I've gone to school with, etc. I only use the site about once or twice a week. I think the women who check it first thing when they wake up probably are desperately searching for something or someone. Sad.

i use face book to keep in touch with my relatives in different states and to talk to old classmates. But i rarely ever go on it. I also cant believe so many guys try and hook up with girls on it. Thats deffinatly not how i use FB at all.

I have a facebook, but I use it to communicate and get in touch. Not for other reasons. Also, I make sure everything I post is something I'd be willing to show/tell my mom.

I have a Facebook and I check it from time to time pretty regularly. However, I don't fall into the age group of the women that were surveyed. I think that it is a very useful and helpful tool to keep in touch. I don't think that it is an addiction to Facebook itself but just a medium for people to keep in touch some what like a cell phone. What's good about this product is that you can meet new people and keep in touch with them long-distance. So with that being said, I don't think that it is the problem, or any addiction. Is just a new way of communicating.

thank god i am not that addicted to Facebook. i only go on to keep track of my friends and family members who moved out of state.

i admit that i am a bit of an addict ...but I dont let checking it interfere with my life. I dont check it at work and I dont check it when im spending time with my bf and kids ...But i do check every morning...then around lunch and before I go to bed.

No one barely hase myspace any more im glad.

I do go on facebook almost every day, but do not play games like most. I use it to keep up with my old friends and people I haven't seen in ages. I was shot at point blank range the end of last year and I am still healing..I have only been on FB a couple months, but I find it comforting to talk to friends (all of my 85+ friends are real life friends) that I can no longer go visit:)

I have a facebook page. I check it a few times a day. I don't play any of the apps like my friends play though. Just check in and log off.

I agree with Stephbff I don't find either Facebook or Myspace very interesting! I think its such a waste of time!
