The XX Factor: What women really think.



  • Ouch!


    Sam, you hit us where it hurts. It's true, my generation hasn't found an easy way into Facebook. I have friends who use it obsessively, like teenagers, and I'm sort of embarrassed for them. I have others who use it like Linked In, to make professional contacts. And others who are so ambivalent that in all their photos they hide behind their kids. Most, like me, just start a page and then neglect it. But I guarantee you, once you're in my shoes and actually start the breast-feeding phase of life (see cranky breast-feeding me in my Atlantic story), as opposed to just dreaming about it (see giddy, insouciant Sam on breast-feeding here), you'll neglect/misuse Facebook too.
