The “Perfect” Online Profile
By: Roy Cui - 10006927
Facebook and other social media websites are
UNDOUBTELY the perfect avenues for SHARING
pictures and life events with friends.
Image: MF (Flickr)
People are going to show off the BEST of their lives
and their FAVOURITE moments.
Image: Bomvu
Social media is for SOCIAL MOMENTS, so everyone is
going to be FOCUSING on the COOLEST MOMENTS
Image: Images of Money (Flickr)
When people go on Facebook they’re often
CRAFTING a persona – they’re portraying themselves
at their HAPPIEST
Image: D Sharon Pruitt (Flickr)
Technology is ADAPTING, providing us with BETTER
tools to present our SELF-IMAGE
Image: Simon Young (Flickr)
We have now the ability to CHANGE our look, and
also MASK our identity
Image: Giovanni (Flickr)
No one would share the BAD, DEPRESSING part of
their lives
Image: Craig Damlo (Flickr)
This creates a type of SOCIAL CENSORSHIP, an
ILLUSION of a perfect life that everyone lives in.
Image: Aapo Haapanen (Flickr)
Some people then “PROJECT – and CONSUME –
IDEALIZED images through Facebook”
Image: Weste McGowen
Researches show that the MASS PROLIFERATION of
so-called “perfect lives” on Facebook can cause
rampant ENVY and DISTRESS
Image: Ktoine (Flickr)
Humans are NATURALLY competitive and social
media platforms ENCOURAGE social comparison
Image: MrDays (Flickr)
Studies showed that 1 in 3 respondents felt more
DISSATISFIED with their own lives AFTER spending
time on the site
Image: Martin Gomel (Flickr)
Viewing the number of BIRTHDAY GREETINGS and
“LIKES” were big culprits

Unprecedented access
to other people’s
photos also triggered
EMOTIONAL PAIN and
RESENTMENT
Image: Tony Blay (Flickr)
These picture – perfect images can be especially
difficult for teenagers to grapple with because
they’re often HYPER-CONSIOUS of MEASURING UP
to their peers
Image: Miguel Angel (Flickr)
It’s a tender and CRITICAL stage in life – a time for
forming an understanding of who you are
Image: Absentbabainski (Flickr)
And 73% of teens are on a social network
Image: Michael B. (Flickr)
But this issue did not just come out with the rise of
social media, it’s in our HUMAN NATURE to appear
the BEST in front of others
Image: Wellcome Image (Flickr)
Social Media only BROADENED the aspects of our
lives which can be compared with and shown to
others
Image: Highways Agency (Flickr)
As time goes on, this problem will be more
MAGNIFIED
Image: Athena Workman (Flickr)
So how PERFECT is your online image?
