ummm no im not embarrassed bout the content on my myspace its clean and embarrass free- but i spose thats a reflection of my life... being a christian and living by God i think 2 myself, wud i do this if my mum found out or wud my dad b ashamed of me if i did this and plus the knowledge of God watching over me all the time is like the ultimate authority frowning on anything shady!! plus random ppl can look at ur profile so why advertise goods if ur not on the market for selling?? sure id let me parents look at my myspace!!

I have a bebo rather than a myspace (cause only a few of my friends use myspace) but I thought I might jump in anyway incase its of any help. No, I wouldn't be embarassed, I think my mum would probably find it quite cutesy. Yeah there's the occasional secksual references, a fair few swear words, but nothing that my mum doesn't know about - I usually show her all my photos and stuff anyway. I don't know know quite what blondesdoitbeta is referring to about not advertising one's goods, unless its just about "camwhore" photos. I do have a few of those I guess, not cleavage-and-pouty pictures with attention-wanting "omg how ugly do i look here" captions or anything though. But I don't see it as advertising - if you looked at my page it'd be pretty hard to miss that I'm taken, and even if I wasn't its not a sign of availability. I think my mum would probably be a bit concerned about my first & last name being on it and my birthday and school and all that, but I guess that'd be because i'm more comfortable in the "information age" and I've sussed out all those security issues or whatever - I feel safe enough doing that the way I do interacting on these boards and having a blog, etc. Anyway if I'm being too confusing or if it'll help you out more, the linky to my bebo is in my sig :)

ohhh nonononno i didnt mean anything offensive when i said about advertising its just that i dont have anything compared to sum of my friends and friends of friends.. the sexy pout with boobs hanging out of a tiny bikini top or bra or i even saw one when she was just holding her bits in with her cupped hands- believe me it was not the image i want to be left with as i go to sleep!!! cud u imagine ur mum seeing something like that of you on the internet?????? no thank you!! im just saying that ppl go too far with these images on myspace and they think thats what guys want to look at... 9 times out of 10 guys probably do though and thats what makes them do it!!!

I don't have anything to be ashamed of on my myspace: but at the same time I don't think I would want my mum to see it. It's just a privacy thing... haha that's kinda funny cause I don't have my profile on private. It is the sort of stuff I want my friends to be able to see but not my family. Plus my mum doesn't even know I have a myspace.

im doing the same kinda thing lol
but i guess i would kinda be embaressed..mainly because i put kiki kannibal n00ds on there and mum might think im some lesbo.
but apart from that my myspace is heaps minimal with like a comment button 2 pictures of my bestfriends and 6 words in my about me.
i keep it heaps minimal cause alot of people lurk my shit.
so if i didnt have the n00ds up there.lol i wudnt mind mum seeing it

That's exactly what I did my PIP on! :p My hypothesis was "MySpace is a signficant catalyst for socialisation amongst adolescents"! My survey results said that 90% of participants use MySpace!

What is your cross-cultural component? Mine was comparing my brother to my own use of MySpace ... he's just entering his teenage years, I'm just leaving them ...
