This is so painfully true on a personal level I teared up when I first read it. 

"Consider birthdays. "You measure how much a person actually cares by which form of communication they use," Samantha told me. "Acquaintances will write on my [Facebook] wall. A friend will text me. A best friend will call." When Samantha's best friend texted her late in the day on her birthday, she was hurt. "It kind of makes you feel like an afterthought." With girls constantly connected, they may judge and dissect even the timing of a message."

“Even when she needs a break from the drama, Facebook’s live-feed format is relentless, telling all. “You don’t even have to stalk,” Samantha told me. “Facebook does the stalking for you.””

 

 

It's so interesting how this is true of adults (of all genders) on social media sites. 

"Research confirms that parents and teachers discourage the emergence of physical and direct aggression in girls early on while the skirmishing of boys is either encouraged or shrugged off. In one example, a 1999 University of Michigan study found that girls were told to be quiet, speak softly, or use a 'nicer' voice about three times more often than boys, even though the boys were louder." 

Welcome to girls first introduction to sexist double standards. *cue my scream of rage*
