Just to add to give some seemingly necessary perspective on this....my 80 year old father has a FB account set up for him by my niece. He never looks at it (he can't remember how to log in) but when I looked at it recently (to show him some of my photos) with him he had lots of 'friend suggestions/requests' from local 20 something blondes who apparently wanted to be his friend. Things are not always what they might seem at first glance.

Well. I'll be the lone dissenter here. I wouldn't want to marry the kind of guy who friended skanky/sexy/scantily clad women on Facebook. So, if I didn't know this about him from other aspects of our lives together, I'd probably want to know.

Yes, porn. A young woman in a skimpy bikini friending random males "she" has never met is a porn front. Photos will be teasers that stay within fb tou until that particular name/persona has run its course. Where the money is made is in links posted that take the readers to sites outside of fb where a small fee is charged to keep viewing. There is millions to be made from porn links. These aren't real in the sense of my fb page is mine.. they are personas like a movie character. They find people in the same way advertisers target you with ads. They guys can say they didn't ask the women to friend them the women asked him.
So the question for the OP's gf is how does she view her bf/husband viewing porn? Some women are fine with it. Others aren't.
A newsfeed does not show who has requested being a friend. It only shows those requests that are accepted.

Volt is right just as we see spam messages from Nigerian Romeos that want to try to con us, they get porn spammers. That, or it's Zynga games. Having said all that, it's not the OP's business.

I think it's strange that she isn't on Facebook, but suggested you friend him. If she really cared what he was doing on Facebook, I think she should join and friend him and leave you out of it. Me too. Why did she ask you and why isn't she on herself?
