I was reading an article on the Psychology Today website on this topic that made me think of the forums.
The four signs that someone is probably insecure are:
1 - they try to make you feel insecure about yourself
2 - they need to showcase his or her accomplishments
3 - they drop the ‘humblebrag’ far too often
4 - they frequently complain that things aren’t good enough
They conclude by saying: being able to detect insecurity in people around you can help you shake off the self-doubts that some people seem to enjoy fostering in you. Taking the high road, and not giving into these self-doubts, may also help you foster feelings of fulfilment both in yourself and in the insecure people that you know and care about.
Good advice for forum mental health!!

"So 2 and 3 could be someone on fab humbly bragging about their sexual accomplishments? "
Or 1, 2 and 3 could be the guys showing off their cock pics, certain forum comments and throwing abuse at women who turn them down |

"I'd say that's correct.
Does anybody consider levels of insecurity in people have increased in recent years or have I just become more observant? "
I think research indicates that increased use of social media has an impact on insecurity. Which might explain an increase in recent years. |

Likely because everyone seems to compare their lives against others. It’s not always greener, they only show you what you want to see ! |

I think there have always been people who compare themselves to others. It used to be called keeping up with the Joneses. Nowadays we have a whole world at our finger tips and unless you are of the mind set that you are good enough as you are insecurity will take over. |

Yes, social media is generally everyone else’s highlights reel. |
