Unit 3: The Bold and the Bashful.
The Bold and the Bashful.
Bashfulness is the quality of being very shy. It is the condition
of feeling nervous and uncomfortable with other people. In addition, this
condition is often linked to low self-esteem. There are several causes of being a shy
person, such as: interactions with parents (authoritarian or
overprotective parents), highly critical work environments and public humiliation. On the other
hand, shyness is considered as a negative condition in some countries, but in
others it is considered as a positive one.
In reference to this topic, I consider
myself as a shy person because I have sometimes felt tense during social encounters,
especially with unfamiliar people.
This situation can be attributed to the overprotection of my parents when
I was a little girl. However, it is important to say that I have enhanced this
condition over the years.
