Petition Schmetition. Just Deactivate Your Account
And tell them why you're doing it.
"Your banning of breastfeeding pictures, but allowing of pro-ana photographs, and other pictures where women are blatantly objectified is unacceptable."
I know you're going to miss all the pokes and 4,000 other totally un-annoying and enjoyable features of Facebook.
Right?
Ducks support breastfeeding.

In fact, I just posted about that. Come Sunday evening (PDT), my account will be deactivated and likely an angry note sent to Facebook.

So glad I never got a facebook.

I couldn't agree more! The next time I actually bother to log into my Facebook account (which I have done maybe once so far), it will be to deactivate it. I just hope they do some kind of exit interview and ask why. We'll see.

Pro-anorexia, Meg. They have pictures and they show how to starve yourself, etc.
It's terrible.

I was going to finally get around to trying out Facebook this month, but I guess it's not going to happen now.
I hope the duck brings in big money.

Done.

You can pull down a Facebook account? I'm all over that. I hate the fucking thing anyway.

I don't get it... does everyone else know what pro-ana means? Can someone clue me in?

I am so pissy about this. I already deleted my superkewl MySpace account (actually, the lamest MySpace account in history).
I guess I'll stalk my old boyfriends one last time and delete.

Did we post nearly identical reasons for deactivating our accounts or what?
Of course, that doesn't surprise me. ;)

I don't have a Facebook account but if I did? I'd be so gone. Maybe I should sign up just so I can dump their asses...heh
Posted by: Izzy | September 18, 2007 at 06:07 PM
Ooooo, I'm going to go delete mine. Because I'm just a follower. And I don't use it anyway.

Totally agree (although I don't think I could give up my F*cebook addiction).
I saw a profile picture of a woman pulling down her tube top; full frontal. Classy.
