What does living in a trailer park have to do with being poorly socialized? Their social environment (and thus the standards of socialization) includes plenty of other people who live in trailer parks... So this is practically by definition false.
We're talking about things like hikikomori or "incels", not just some general sense of "lower class".
- IntronExon 9y agoIf your standard for “poorly socialized” is hikikomori and “incels” then you’re worrying about such a minute minority that it isn’t worth addressing. I would also call both of those groups much more than poorly socialized; they’re on a spectrum from disturbed, to profoundly mentally ill.
- frgtpsswrdlame 9y agoI still don't understand what leads you to believe residents of a trailer park are poorly socialized.
- aianus 9y agoMen who have trouble getting laid are a ‘disturbed minute minority’ now? Have you ever been in a freshman CS class? Yeesh.
- IntronExon 9y agoIncel is not “men who have trouble getting laid.” And you know it.
- wutbrodo 9y agoSure, hikikomori are an extreme example, but extreme examples are useful when someone is having trouble understanding a concept. I thought you were perhaps able to extrapolate that I didn't literally mean _only_ people as extreme as those examples, but everything on the continuous spectrum from there to "well-socialized".
