Re: Facebook.............!
Exactly and it has happened many times.
Yeah but there are instances *where you want to be connected with people for professional reasons...networking is huge. You never know where or how opportunity may arise. *
Or maybe you just want to catch up once in a while. To see how everyone you went to school with is doing.
I dont see any harm in that.

this reminds me of that i should do a cleaning.
Re: Facebook.............!
Many many desi men will have issues if none if those male are members of extended family. They will not even tolerate it if you are doing it for creating a network for your career/business.
Some will understand , they are a minority in desi community. So maybe clarify this during rishta/courtship process to avoid complications later. But in desi community there is still a chance that one day this guy becomes religiously enlightened and all that which was OK becomes taboo overnight.
Re: Facebook.............!
Some girls just keep on adding more and more male friends to get a sense of popularity in their community.
But stranger men in friends list are never seen as a problem.
Re: Facebook.............!
I dont add any 'strangers' to my fb list anyways, even from GS ppl. I have maybe a handful and those are people I know well enough. Other than that the people are family, friends and acquaintances.
someone noted fb for networking, it can work. I limit my professional networking to linkedin. Now there are people who are on both my fb and linkedin lists but not all.
plus the proof of my dorkiness is that my linkedin contact list is 3 times that of my fb list. all work and no play made me a dull uncle I guess :D

Re: Facebook.............!
I've never really seen it as "bad" on a girl's part, or for that matter, mine. Half the world is populated with males, it's highly probable you'll become friends, colleagues with some. Heavy sarcasm intended.
Talk about lack of moderation pssh.
Re: Facebook.............!
what nonsense attitude..a woman is supposed to just erase any male that was a part of her life in whatever context? friend, classmate, colleague?
why such a big deal? because some sahibzada may have his ghatiya friends poke fun at him that oh look your wife has so many men as her friends? or some saas would be hurt if other assorted phapa kutnis in the community use a similar thing to 'put her down'?
with mentalities like the ones I see exhibited in certain jahilana nooks and crannies of the community, I am certain that some day it will lead to an "honour killing" (code word for barbaric cold blooded murder) by some ghairatmand mard/proud Man (code word for some sorry excuse of a human male, I mean a homosapien male specimen). Hate to say it, but if it has not already, sadly it will.
Re: Facebook.............!
seriously?
sad but true.
Re: Facebook.............!
Ive spoken to girls before who are amazed as to how some women have hundreds of friends on their facebook pages...some of them men too.
I dont think its that big of a deal to have men on there as long as they're ex-colleagues, classmates or of a platonic nature.
Is it a big deal to have men on your facebook page?
No I don't think it's a big deal to have men on facebook !
I have my ex class mates , my cousins , my uncles on my fb. But yes I don't add men and women who are strangers.
Re: Facebook…!
Why its such a bid deal:konfused: Of course no one is gonna add strangers in fb list but family,cousins, colleagues you can add them.Whats wrong in it? Well tbh I found some of my old pals through fb it was really nice to see them and listen to their updates. One of our family friend’s son found me and my sisters almost after 17 years, I was so happy to see their families,wives etc. does this mean that we cannot add males in our fb list. Husband who do these silly things why they are so insecure or why they don’t trust their wives?
Re: Facebook.............!
I don't use Facebook anymore but I read a study recently (ermm it was published in in FHM) which discussed how facebook is damaging people's real life. There have been quite many incidents of getting fired from work for some stupid immoral/unethical crap posted on FB, stalking, blackmailing and even a few murders (not e-muders, but a bunch of lunatics making a fake profile, meeting up with someone and murdering them), plus, there are quite many people who live a secret second life (in that proper settled married men/women create some profiles on Facebook for flirting and dating thrills). So yeah, the cons outweigh the pros mostly. Not to mention that the Facebook creators/managers/owners etc. aren't handling people's personal information in a very responsible manner.
Re: Facebook…!
Oh did I mention ladies posting half naked pool photos of teenage boys off of facebook on other websites? 
People are weird man, very weird.
Re: Facebook.............!
Why even use Fuzool Bakwaas (FB) ?
Re: Facebook.............!
The over use of any thing is bad !! Simple
I have met a lot of old friend via facebook - and i visit it one a day - or after a couple of days
good way to interact with old friends
jahan tak bat ha larkian adding larkay and larkay adding old larkian friends - it all depends on your understanding in b/w

Re: Facebook.............!
Life1 makes me so appreciative if even the most mundane aspects of my life. I don't know any desi guy like the ones Mirch describe, thank God.
Re: Facebook.............!
I have had stranger men send me friend request which are denied. Hubby and I don't have problem with adding our work colleagues, college buddies and our friends but we don't randomly add any men or women that sends us the request. I post a lot of pictures of our family on facebook so i don't like to have strangers on my profile looking through our pictures and stuff.
