>If silence becomes trendy amongst extroverts
That sounds like an impossibility, unless these extroverts are communicating non-verbally. How do you do the "extro-" part of extrovertedness without talking?
- master-lincoln 2mo agoNon verbal communication, physical closeness to others, clothing/make-up/hair style, messages on belongings are some more ways to express extroversion
- sublinear 2mo agoSilence can be used to assert dominance. That's why I referenced "the rules" people might be familiar with in a school setting. Maybe I can paint a clearer picture in your head if I asked you to imagine how silence would be used during an interrogation or by the main character of an action movie? Silence used to be a very popular choice by previous generations of extroverts and it wasn't "relaxing". It created the very same tension that compels people to make small talk (and fools of themselves) nowadays.
- fluoridation 2mo ago>how silence would be used during an interrogation No, not really. If anything that makes it more ambiguous, since I can imagine several different ways for silence to be used in such a scenario. >or by the main character of an action movie An action hero asserts dominance not by silence, but by physicality. >Silence used to be a very popular choice by previous generations of extroverts and it wasn't "relaxing". Was it? How do you know? Why aren't you giving those examples instead of these ones?
