Male dominance and nudity content are to blame for the slowing growth of Facebook users in India

An internal study by social media giant Meta reportedly found that many women shunned Facebook in India owing to male dominance on the platform.

According to Reuters, the study, which lasted two years and ended in 2021, discovered a slew of issues. According to the report, other major reasons for the decline in Facebook user growth included nudity content, complex design of the Facebook app, literacy barriers, and a lack of appeal. In February of this year, Meta’s chief financial officer Dave Wehner stated that one of the major reasons for a steep decline in Facebook’s user growth in India was high mobile data costs.
