A Thought Experiment About Shyness.

4 posts in this topic

Recently I find a weird thing about shyness.
I thought it about morality, but it looks like turns out to be different.
-
For example: 
We at future and someone made a robot which looks like me, speaks like me and so on.
Any your experience with me and with the robot will be the same, but you are always know where real me and where the robot.

The question is can you feel shy because of the robot one by one if it can't say anything about you to others?

@QuizzerCan you shy of the robot, when you talk to it one by one and if it can't tell anything about you to others?

I don't see how shyness would be linked to morality. Can you explain in more detail why you think shyness is about morality? Is it because you are afraid that other people might think you are immoral?

I think that shyness comes out of being afraid of what other people think about you, and being afraid of being judged by other people - but not necessarily about morality, it can be about other subjects too. I used to be shy because I had a huge fear of being rejected - being afraid that other people might not like me.

Many people have a bias where they think that they are the center of attention. They feel like everybody around them is paying attention to them and judging them all the time. In reality that's not true - people are mostly busy with themselves. Realizing this was one of the things that helped me to get over shyness. Also, when you express yourself, rather than hide yourself, the chance is bigger that people will accept and have respect for you. So, not expressing you because you are shy can actually cause people to reject you - exactly what you're afraid of when you're shy.
