At the core of the rift in the example I gave, some people are enticed by the allure of scandal.
"Did you know [Some Fucking Guy] did something that will let you trash talk him and feel morally superior the next time his name comes up in conversation?" just doesn't appeal to me.
I'm interested in ideas and how to use those ideas to help the people who are actually a part of my life.
I'm prone to, when confronted with "people talk", ask questions that none of them are usually prepared to answer. Like:
- Is this the most pressing matter to you right now?
- Why does her choice in romantic or sexual partners speak to you? How does it influence your self-perception? Your place in society?
- If you had the same opportunity, what choice would you have made?
Or the more pressing question: Who fucking cares what cosenting adults do behind closed doors?
