Posting and sharing photos on one’s Facebook page is so OK. But be careful in adding a description or comment, more specially when it can offend other people.
Take this case when an immigrant worker Michael McFeat from Abernethy, Perthshire, Scotland (Great Britain) posted on December 31st a New Year corporate party photo of Kyrgistan’s national delicacy on his facebook page.
But he added this comment: “The Kyrgyz people queuing out the door for their special delicacy the horse penis!!!”
