MySpace Users and Their Accounts

Looking through the accounts of people on MySpace, one thing I noticed above all others is how fake they portray themselves to be. The pictures for example were but the tip of the iceberg for some of these people. Almost all of the girls had their picture make them look naughty yet nice at the same exact time. The boys on the other hand sometimes showed no expression at all, in fact some of them even had the I don't care look. Another thing these accounts had was their music. Almost all of the music I heard is currently on the top of the charts, like they're trying to show other people, who they don't even know in some cases, that they're just like everyone else, with the same taste in music. The girls usually had the girly pop songs and the guys tended to have the heavy rock. When I looked at some of these accounts, it was like they were trying to tell everyone that they like exactly what they're expected to like, based on their gender. Guys usually had black backgrounds and the girls for the most part had bright and vibrant colors, usually pink. Despite how they make themselves appear to be on their accounts, most of these people have made themselves seem so fake, you just know that they are not who they seem to be. An example of how fake they act is that a lot of people on that site seem to like making themselves appear around 18-22. Many of the people who fell into this range, or at least said they did, did not appear to look so. If everyone on this site was exactly how they claimed to be, the world would probably be very gray when it came to diversity.
