About This Quote

The term selfie was popularized in 2011, when a 22-year-old man named Martin Lukacs took a selfie in front of the Taj Mahal. The photo he took was so well liked that his picture was being used in many articles and websites. People began taking selfies because they wanted to display how well they looked. They could show everyone how much better they looked than their friends.

In a way, Martin Lukacs started the entire phenomenon of selfies. As time passed, the technology advanced and people began taking selfies from different locations and at different times to show how much fun they were having in general. They began taking selfies when they were happy, sad, angry, bored, and anything else that happened during the day.

People began taking selfies simply because it was a cool thing to do. They no longer cared about the quality of the picture itself. Rather, they wanted to share their ideas with other people before anyone else had a chance to see it.
