Analyses of survey results from a random sample of women bloggers (N = 298) show three motivations drive women to use social media – information, engagement, and recreation. The recreation motivation outweighs the other two motivations in predicting frequency of social media use.
However, when differences between Facebook, Twitter, and other social media were considered, results show women bloggers turn to social media in general for recreation, but to Facebook for engagement and to Twitter for information. Findings also show that psychological needs for affiliation and self-disclosure are related to the engagement motivation, and self-disclosure is associated with the information motivation. The results are discussed in relation to need theory.
tomcatty: Can you put some valid discussion even copy and paste which is by the way valid.
If your title was "Do you think people are affected by social media when rejected", I think that might have made for a better discussion than ...........what the hell is wrong with women (paraphrased).

Tom's title to the post is disingenuous. It poses as a serious question, while in actual fact, it's a face-slap for women in general. Actually, it's really about a recent spat here on the forums between him and another member.
So what does that say about Tom? Well, it doesn't actually say anything, because all these posts online are just pissing in the wind. Tomorrow, we'll be talking and texting about something else. We're all just pissing in the wind. Order the t-shirt. Own it. 'I'm Pissing-In-The-Wind' - in all sizes, black or white, crew neck.
