10 myths about narcissism ~ Dr. Ramani
I get much more into this myth in the book, so you can read about this there, but narcissistic people aren't always men.
Narcissistic people just say stuff like that because they don't have a filter.
There is this assumption that narcissism is just simply someone who's blunt or brusque and speaks their mind or speaks a painful truth.
Narcissistic people are often quite abrupt and can be quite hurtful, and that's their lack of empathy.
But by itself, Bluntness, speaking their mind, that doesn't imply narcissism.
Bluntness and abruptness and so-called straight talk can be a byproduct of culture.
It could be something that someone observes in a person who's getting older.
It could be part and parcel of other central nervous system things that are going down.
This pattern of just being blunt and speaking their mind, it's one of those most narcissistic people don't have a filter.
because they don't care about you, but not all unfiltered people are narcissistic.
