Why does so much of society today equate cynicism with maturity? As a grown man with 3 kids, 4 houses, 3 cars one wife, I like to think I’m fairly mature, yet I find cynicism to be a thief of joy.
- ChuckMcM 9y agoI don't equate cynicism with maturity, I equate a more nuanced view of the world with maturity. I know people who are both immature and cynical, in some cases a bit of maturity would mitigate their cynicism.
