I recently asked a new user what they thought of Collective App. Their response? “I think it’s decent — lots of shirtless gym boys tho, which is kinda annoying.” My reply: “Oh we just ignore them. They’ll get it eventually.” The takeaway: Mirror selfies and the constant need to show off shirtless, beefy bods isn’t confidence — it’s stagnation. It signals limiting beliefs, emotional shallowness, and a lack of true self-awareness. #justsayin

I’ll add to that with a bit of my trademark bluntness: the whole gym selfie thing also gives off the impression that they don’t have much to offer besides their appearance. They don’t talk much about their interests or have meaningful conversations. The few times they do say something, it’s just what everyone else is talking about (e.g. the latest gay diva and her new iCoNiC single). I don’t think there’s anything inherently wrong with selfies or not always engaging in meaningful conversations, but there has to be a balance, right? And there’s not much of a balance with some types of users, just endless selfies.
