I love looking at pictures on the Internet of girls passed out in
shopping carts, binge drinking, and pulling bong hits naked. But while
it pains me to say it, I do believe that women should not post their
late night exploits on Myspace and Facebook.

Through blogs and social networking sites, the Internet has enabled
people to create a social personality. Which for the author can be
rewarding and cathartic but it comes with a price. Pictures, videos,
and stories that a person posts allow viewers to form their own notions
and opinions of the person without ever having met them.

For example, someone who reads my website might conclude that I’m a
misogynistic asshole. Just as I might conclude from a girl’s Myspace
page that she’s a drunken whore. And whether it’s true or not, it’s up
to the viewer to decide.

Of course, the one problem with the Internet is that once content is
posted it is next to impossible to remove it. And if its on the
Internet, Google can find it.

And the truth is women, like it or not, in the working world there
is a double standard. A picture of a guy passed out on the bathroom
floor clutching a toilet is simply a boy being a boy. A picture of
women in the same situation is tragic and irresponsible.

So women get drunk, just leave the camera at home.
