What you say matters


Listen Later

Sometimes people make unsolicited comments about others physical appearance, body hair, personal grooming habits and more. And so many people do this without even thinking about the ways they could be triggering others. It's easy to say that the people on the receiving end of these comments are just too sensitive or too easily offended, and maybe sometimes they are, but even so, words hurt. The truth of the matter is that when we live only following society's accepted standards and refuse to believe anything different we hurt ourselves and everyone around us. Before long, we begin to shame ourselves for not measuring up to the standards of others, and that's no good.
