I really don't mind people taking too many selfies of themselves. It actually improves their self-image when they see themselves with different facial expressions, in different clothes, and against different backgrounds. "Selfie", to me, doesn't only mean "self-portrait"--it also means "self-discovery".

Many years ago, before we had mobile phones, people were encouraged to watch themselves on videotape to make themselves aware of how they look to others and how they move. It sought to eliminate blind spots. Today the selfie accomplishes just that.
