If your husband/boyfriend is addicted to posting selfies then you might need to worry because according to a study he is probably selfish and may even be a psychopath.
According to the researchers from Ohio State University, men who regularly post selfies on sites such as Facebook, Twitter and Instagram, are more likely to be narcissistic, impulsive and display other characteristics, such as a lack of empathy.
The Psychologists from Ohio State University found that men who posted selfies regularly, scored higher than average for levels of anti-social traits.
According to assistant professor of communication Jesse Fox, men who doctor their images to improve their appearance, show signs of narcissism and self-objectification
‘Psychopathy is characterised by impulsivity. They are going to snap the photos and put them online right away. They want to see themselves. They don’t want to spend time editing,’ Professor Fox explained.
The researchers surveyed 800 men aged between 18 and 40 about their social media output, as well as giving them psychological questionnaires to establish personality traits.
So is your man addicted to posting selfies?
