Why do girls take take a lot of selfies?

I used to be addicted to taking selfies - hundreds a day - when I was at the peak of my mental health problems.
I did it because I was insecure and wanted to take pictures that made me feel pretty.
After I got mental health help, and recovered from the worst of my mental health issues, and raised my self-esteem, I rarely take selfies anymore.

We just want to show to the world what we're up to. We want to show who we're with.. who makes us happy... we want to show off our friends.. we want to show that we're having a good time. w also want to show off how we look in that moment... most importantly, selfie's are a way for us to save memories of being w that person

I think it's because it gives girls confidence, love for themselves, and gives an opportunity to get complimented by people in their social media

Well after they do all that makeup and all that, I'd probably take a pic too. Put on a duck face and pucker up or something lol. I would like girls to take pictures of themselves without makeup, just so they see that they actually look good without it too. And many times the makeup takes away more than they realize

Women's value in romantic relationahips, and sometimes even in a societal sense, comes from their external appearance. Women naturally already worry more about it than men. Add the fact that we're all able to take instant pictures of ourselves all day, and viola, you have women taking selfies constantly.

Why?
Narcissism, combined with insecurity, which leads to a perceived need to have validation provided by other constantly. -
Because they love to see themselves? 😂 or maybe because its either they always feel pretty and in good mood thats why they keep selfies on their phone OR they want the public to see how beautiful they are thats why they post it on instagram? I really don't know as I don't have instagram. lol

Approval from society as for them the society opinión matter much tan their own opinión? Attention seekers? Self absorbed reasons? Ego problems I hate selfies I dont even have one on my phone, I found them senseless, stupid and boring, looking at your own photo and when you hit a certain age if you are obsessed with selfies you may have a image problem. But todays generation that is one of the problems with the technology

Maybe their memories suck so they can't remember most things that happen to them that are noteworthy of a picture.
Seriously I can't figure out another explanation. -
I occasionally take some selfies, but post only a few, and that would be if I'm particularly happy that day in that pictures, or for my workout progress over the years. I don't like narcissistic behaviors, and I don't be, and I look at other ladies' selfies too.
There are guys who take more selfies than some ladies... I have met and known. -
it's just a self esteem thing , like the fact that we look at ourselves in the mirror a billion times a day, we gotta make sure we look beautiful on the outside too, also because people made it like an unspoken rule how girls should look perfect otherwise they disgust the community , sad but true
-
Me personally I take a lot out of boredom but while in the process I really like the photo then I'll put it as my profile picture which I change a lot by the way lol 😂😂😂, I don't post for attention or likes. If you like it or not I really don't care.

Attention and approval from society. I don't see the appeal of constant selfies... oh look your face, oop there it is again. If you post more than one selfie a day then you are probably wasting your life.
-
Because they're self absorbed and narcissistic and looking for validation.

Why does it matter? People take photos of food too. Why do they do that?
Why do people take a picture of the sunset or their cat? Why take any pictures? -
I've taken selfies before too but only to see how bad I looked not how good I looked. I'm not one that's stuck on myself for sure and I certainly wouldn't have posted them anywhere or even used any unless one turned out to be a retro picture and they only one I had I needed.

For some people it can be about capturing and sharing memories, but if more than half of the pictures in your phone are selfies then you have a problem.
I mostly take photos of nature and animals. They are much more beautiful than some attention seeking self-absorted girls. -
It is quite annoying. I noticed i can't find a selfie to put on tinder. I dont take them at all.
-
I take a few
.. mostly out of boredom... or if I want a new profile photo. not for the heck of it like some do. - 1.2K opinions shared on Girl's Behavior topic.
Confidence and ego boost. Sometimes you get a particularly good one and it's just nice to see yourself in a positive way instead of pointing out the negatives
-
Ha ha, us girls do love selfies, its just natural, we just love taking pictures of ourselves and we just do it a lot without even knowing... sometimes...
-
Because we need to feed that inner monster called "my ego".
And to flaunt our stuff to our friends sometimes, because you know, we all like compliments now and then. ✨ -
I don't know why but I find it quite annoying
-
Narcissistic b! tches in my opinion
They know though that many guys will give like to their selfies. Everyone looks at least ok in them. In real pics not so much xD -
Instagram is literally made for selfies.. Why is this a question they take them because they look cute and want a pic
