This time around, we're talking about shame…
Specifically, this:
- When did you first become aware of shame?
- Do you find shame a problematic thing?
- What's the most shame you've ever felt?
- What is something society (or even a large group of people) seem ashamed of that doesn't bother you at all?
- Have you ever shamed others?
- Do you think shame is used to control people?
- How damaging do you think shame is for those on the receiving end?
- We've all heard the saying, "Have you no shame?" Why do you think some people fixate on shame?
- Do you think shame can ever play a good role in society?
- What role does shame play in politics?
- Do you think we'll ever move beyond body shaming people?
- What's the future of shame?
