They want/need/crave validation, maybe?

I've seen it with people in different stages in their lives so I don't even think its just a 'these folks out here now' type of thing.

I personally couldn't see getting down like that cuz I'm just old enough that I grew up without having to publicly document every damn thing I do/think/say/want. And I'm doing fine if not everyone is aware of how seriously I lust after Anitta, Regina Hall, or whoever.

But hey, maybe they're not thinking it through all the way. Most grown ass folks I know would be not into that type of stuff at all.

I don't even love my wife posting pics of me while we're on vacation/out somewhere (cuz I don't love people knowing exactly where I'm at ever..I'm square enough as it is so I'm usually at home or work..that's enough!), and she pretty much knows trying to slide some Jayz sneak diss shit at me online isn't gonna be a good look. And I'm going to react in-person. Or as the kids were saying, I'm going to pull up on her directly on some ole say it with ya chest shit. And I adore that lady.
