How do you perceive pain and do you find it socially acceptable to express it?
We alone feel our pain; physical, emotional or otherwise. Do you feel compelled to hide or express it?
Is it “better” to be tougher; have a higher pain tolerance, or to have a thick skin? Is it seen as more socially acceptable or “stronger”?
What are some disadvantages to being “stronger”? What are the advantages of being the opposite, sensitive? Is there a point in which this ideology becomes a hindrance to us? What triggers this ideology, where did it come from?
