The informants in this study are employees of PT Bank BTPN MUR Bengkulu as Instagram users who post memes using meme photos on their Instagram accounts. Where women are considered more courageous in showing their expressions in front of the public. The results showed that there are three motives behind Instagram users in doing meme posting activities, namely the entertainment motive, the love motive, the soul expression motive. In addition, in interpreting the meme posting activities carried out by Instagram users, researchers found two main points, namely users feel cared for by followers and feel that they are providing information to followers.
