Do you respond well when someone yells at you? Honest question.

In a lot of cultures anger is seen as weakness, it's the person giving into negativity. It's also seen as hostile. I don't attribute "passion" to someone who is angry. You can be angry without being passionate, and vice versa. Some people are just bitter.

I'm honestly really surprised by this response.

Of course not. But just because I don't like being yelled at in the moment doesn't mean I don't need it sometimes. If someone's angry at me it's because I've hurt them. I'm not going to scold them for yelling if I'm clearly in the wrong.

> In a lot of cultures blah blah

Thanks for explaining that like I've only recently arrived on Earth! I'm obviously not saying that anger is always good or useful. But if the cause is just and the pain is great, a well-articulated anger is going to be far more effective than milquetoast pleading.
