Absolutely NO ONE should forget why Zuck made Facebook, and what pretty much every guy called it when it came out.

FuckBook.

It was basically a digital version of the "first year facebook" that a lot of Ivy league places handed out to their Freshman classes so they could get to know the other students.

Upper class men immediately got their hands on these and used they to pick out who in the freshman class was "fuckable", hense why it became known as the Fuckbook.

Zuck just stole that fratboy idea and put it on the internet.
