Charming people are charming.
The word is just a shorthand for people who are able to express themselves in a way that puts other people at ease and engenders a positive emotional state.
It’s pretty much an unmitigated positive trait. Like any positive trait it can be paired with all sorts of other characteristics positive or negative.
But there’s really just nothing wrong with being charming, and no moral authority that derives from not being so.
- ptx 6y agoPerhaps it's neither a positive nor a negative trait, but rather a power with which comes the responsibility to use it for positive purposes?
