I don't disagree, I was just pointing out that shaming goes beyond face to face contact
When people say everyone is so sensitive I shudder a bit....it sounds like people are upset that they can no longer say what they want.
I don't think it is quite that simple in my opinion. I don't just go around saying mean things and never have. I think the whole "shaming" thing stems from a generation of people who have grown up with social media. Making a comment about someone's body, looks etc is ok, it isn't shaming. when you get down and dirty and there is hate behind the comment it is unnecessary .....shaming is when you make someone feel bad for something that they did wrong, like a dog that peed on the carpet. JMHO
Well shaming is actually making a person feel bad or wrong for them just being them....that's kind of where it came from....is it overused? Yes. However, at its core it's about a bias against someone else because they're different or don't meet your standards while they're not harming anyone. It's not really a new thing stemming from social media....social media only gave those people who felt they were being shamed for a long time a voice to express how others made them feel. Should the profession of stripping be shamed? Probably...but the human doing the stripping shouldn't be made to feel not worthy of respect because that's what they chose to do to earn honest money. However, since you don't go around saying mean things to people perhaps your perspective is that people are sensitive but I would say it's not quite that simple as well. Only trying to provide a perspective you may not have considered.
I get what you are saying. I just think people put themselves out there for the attention....they have to accept that some people are not going to think they are cute or perfect or like everything that they do or say. That is the reality of life. Don't put yourself out there in a way that people can and will comment and you don't get the the crap that comes along with it.
....living your life is not putting yourself out there....why people feel the need to publically and irresponsibly comment, critique and degrade people is the real question. The person being shamed isn't the problem, the person shaming is the actual problem. And I agree that some people take the shaming thing too far but I don't know if that's being overly sensitive or if it's more about everyone feeling that they need to be a victim because it's trendy.

Seriously? Isn't shaming what this entire thread is about?
Yep....that's what most of these threads are about.
Are we really having this conversation in a gossip message board? Again?
We will have the same convos over and over and over until everyone has asked and answered the same question multiple times. And then when new people join, we will do it again. lolAre we really having this conversation in a gossip message board? Again?
this is the kardashian thread...their fame stems from a very profitable sex tape that involved urine.
there is no shame left.
