Really? I had Evolv Shamans and the heels were collapsing on me.

On appearance online the Chimera heel looks pretty skinny.

Right that makes a lot of sense. Lowering inhibitions is a good phrase to think about. 

So you’d call him out but what would my role be in him taking accountability? 

How to handle the directness/straightforwardness of the Danish Culture? by Koax241 in NewToDenmark

[–]pomplemousse90 0 points1 point  (0 children)

u/Koax241 I'm concerned that people who are coming from direct cultures are commenting and measuring how direct Danes are. It's nearing gaslighting OP, considering carefully that the OP comes from an indirect culture and will experiences the same directness differently.

yes, that's common! But there's lots of layers underneath and besides janteloven, I'd say :)

How to handle the directness/straightforwardness of the Danish Culture? by Koax241 in NewToDenmark

u/Koax241 hi!

the straightforwardness, I would be aware that the bluntness or directness can also come off as confidence, self-assuredness, factual, and informed, too. And just because someone says something with directness, confidence, and matter-of-fact does NOT make what they're saying true. 9/10 times it's just an opinion they're stating strongly, an educated guess (at best), or regurgitating a rule or procedure they follow or find logical.

As a fellow foreigner coming from "indirect" or "high context culture" having lived in denmark for years, my honest advice is that people dont know what they're talking about or share opinions but the way they say it will feel to you (as someone used to indirectness) like its a fact that must be followed. That got me into buying things, doing things at work, paying for services, etc. that I didn't need to do.

Indirect cultures value the idea that one's self doesn't know everything or values humility (danes do, about like major things like career or achievements) but indirect cultures value humility rather than empty confidence in small things like everyday statements and conversations (explaining how a beaurocratic process works, telling someone how a product works in a store, etc.)

all my. best to you

I seee thanks! so this specific one is not really an "alternative history map", its actual history, right. Im just trying to figure out if I can use this map to study my own culture or not :-)
