This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

No. It's just an equivalent to 'why don't you smile? You look so beautiful when you do'

You're just wrong lol. Asking someone why they don't smile more is fucking patronizing. Asking why someone looks angry all the time is about asking to learn more about them, as they have genuine interest in the person.

Do you honestly think a woman would ask a man why they look angry all the time if they genuinely believed the man was simply angry?

Both can be patronizing.

And yeah, why not?
