Man do I do that exact loop with public performance / deliberate performance phenomena all the time! It’s tough! To defend us: it is good that societies have norms against self-promotion, attention-seeking, and deceit! This may be a special case where the beauty brought into the world is worth it, cannot come any other way, etc., and where those vices aren’t very strong or notable! But we’re not wholly nuts to look slightly skeptically at it, IMO!

Gotta have a healthy dose of skepticism. Nice hat, Mills.
Isn't it sooo patriarchal how they teach 'que padre' in Spanish class and not 'a toda madre'? 🤭🤭🤭
