This inquiry surveys 539 Arab university students to explore gender motivational differences in Instagram use, examining the Self-Perfectionist Personality concept and usage activities that best forecast a Self-Presentation motive on Instagram. While both genders employed Instagram mostly for Entertainment, they varied on the priority of other motives. Females were less likely to have public accounts, post personal pictures, and reveal personal information. Also, self-perfectionists of both genders excessively edited their personal pictures before posting them and were more likely to employ Instagram for Self-Presentation. Outcomes are debated in the light of the influences of culture and gender roles in Kuwait.
