We say words we do not mean...
In my culture, we say quite alot of words we do not mean...
These words are often heard when we are angry, irritated and sometimes even in casual talks.
Over exaggeration is also very common in our conversations and these are often not looked on as false or lies.
We oftentimes too refrain from saying the words we ought to be saying and the words we really do mean...
In my culture we readily give an opinion on things we know little or nothing about and oftentimes our words are unkind and brutish.
Here are a few words. Can you think of anymore or any they use in your culture?
Words we speak about men:
- Men are dogs
- Men need to find their rightful place
- Men are no good
- Men are selfish
- Men are not loving towards their children
Words we speak about our children:
- You are worthless and good for nothing
- You will not become anything good in life
- You will soon breed
- You dunce
- You have no sense
- You are stupid
Words we speak about our women:
- She is a bitch
- She is a witch
- She is such a Jezebel
- She only know to take man
- She is a whore
- She have no ambition
- She only want him money
Words we speak about our leaders:
- They don't know what they doing
- They are thieves and crooks
- They are all the same
Words we speak about ourselves:
- I am not good enough
- I don't deserve better
- I am so cold
- I am so tired
- I am stressed
- I am broke
- I am weak
