...reveals a lot more about us than the person who made the initial remark: it reveals that we want to be noticed, and it hurts our feelings when we are noticed in a negative manner. So who's insecure?
Maybe. If someone posts an image it's a given they wish to be noticed. But questioning a comment instigated by the image is not necessarily a cry for recognition or a sign of insecurity. In a case where multiple credits are given for models used the image is clearly not about modeling. It would therefor seem unfair to judge it on that basis. That would be like criticizing a dog because it is not a cat. One might do so if the dog insisted upon meowing but that does not appear to be the case in this incident.
pookah69, I think your comment holds some truth in many instances- just not this one. This one is about unfairness, not negativity.
