Let's recommend people don't use a site which does not recognise the concept of privacy, expands the realm of the public versus the private at every opportunity, and spams their friends about their activities without their permission. People (not just LGBT people) should avoid FB entirely unless they want to be exposed to embarrassing situations like this, as FB continually tries to erode their privacy.

Using a public site like Twitter or Blogger is far healthier, as then it is clear that all content is public all the time.
