It's an agonizing five-to-ten minutes, as anyone who's been through it can tell you, which may explain the reason as to why ladies are reaching out to complete strangers.

What do you think? Is this a natural embrace of new technology to garner support (and YouTube hits), or another example of what Jezebel calls an "overshare?"
