How expose are you online?!

Hm...no one actually answered the question of: What if your partner does so?

But from majority answers it looks like that guys are more likely to be private than girls. Of course, girls tends to be more gossipy and love to be more competitive about their life(eg, rich partner, sex life etc).

I just find it sad for her husband to be publicised without knowing(i think...or maybe he does know!?)~and what's sadder...is that~she is going to publish the story...into a book(I guess that's nothing new in western culture).

Wasabi, the sad thing is that people care enough to spend time/money to know information about some random person. People are sad.

The sad thing is that some would want to read the book~D

*edit* I just realized that BP already more or less said that...

Honestly Wasabi I think the more important issue here for you personally is that we all know Pape, so don't tell us anything that Pape wouldn't want us to know!

If all involved were totally anonymous then I'd say tell what you want, no harm done. I could blab all kinds of stuff if I didn't think people would be bored stiff ~;)

DA

I think it stems from the celebrity worship in parts of our culture. They try to add glamour to their lives.

As for me, I wouldn't let my partner do it.

Crazed Rabbit

The issue is that a mothers group online (they are all ethnically Chinese with ethnically European husbands) has an extrovert going into details of how many affairs she has, how often she has sex with her husband etc.

The rest of the women feel that the extrovert (see I can be PC too) is bringing a bad name for mixed couples. That her actions are self indulgent and not really in tune with the group... which is about dealing with raising a mixed family in some pretty conservative (PC statement again) countries.

Also a lot of the mothers are a little shocked that the extrovert would give so many details out about her partner.

Personally I think she craves attention and just sees her husband as a fashion accessary. This can be seen in plenty of women (and men) rich or poor but generally with little 'class' aka Paris Hilton.

My wife wouldn't be allowed to use the computer anyways. :brood:

Im very open with people I know.. including a webcam and a mic. Some people hundreds of miles away know more about my personal life than my family. ~D

But.. i would never post anything very personal on a website or where people i dont explicitely know can read it. ~:eek:

I share bits and pieces in context with topics, and discuss aspects of my private life with people I've come to know online but have never met, whom I trust to be discreet and who share in kind. I would not post a day-to-day "blog" kinda thing. I've never read one either, as they don't interest me for some reason (odd, as I thoroughly enjoy people-watching, both in the "real" world and online at places like this).

Ya never know when extreme circumstances might kick in and a "higher law" necessarily supercedes the laws of the land, resulting in unlawful action. The last thing I want in such a circumstance is for big-brother to have a lot of detailed day-to-day data about me. Hmm ... then again, it might be fun to misdirect and slow them down a bit ... Bah, that would be a waste of time--they probably already know how many hairs I have on my um .. chin at any given moment (just remembering this is Wasabi asking, not Papewaio).

No, if my significant other were to divulge anything personal about me online without my express permission, it would result in a very lengthy session with my studded double-wide ... ~;).
