My Question of the Day for 01 December 2009 – RESULTS

-

The Question: Teasing is harmless as long as you are only joking with the other person. Agree or disagree?

My 2 Cents: I have slender feet with long, slender toes. When I was growing up, my family used to tease me about my feet. Mainly it was my Mom and Daddy who teased me about my feet.

If I was sitting in the livingroom watching television with my feet propped up on the coffee table one of them thought it was so funny to say, “Faydra, get your hands off the coffee table. Oh, I’m sorry. Those are your feet.” They’d break out in laughter and so would the rest of the family. For years, I had a complex about my feet and wouldn’t wear sandals or any open-toed shoe. I definitely wouldn’t walk around barefooted in front of anyone.

It wasn’t until my middle 30s that I overcame this complex. It was my former husband who convinced me that there wasn’t anything funny or funny-looking about my feet. When I finally started wearing sandals, other people also complimented me on my feet.

I know my family was only joking with me, but I carried that for years and years. So much so, I’ve never been comfortable saying the word “toes.” Yes. I know. Get over it. Haha.

Teasing is harmful if the person you’re teasing is uncomfortable with what you’re saying. Like some of you said, you have no idea what people are dealing with in their private lives, so you have no idea whether your teasing is being taken personally.

Think before you speak. Once it’s out there, you can never take it back.

———-

Take a few moments to check out the tweets from Twitter on this subject:

———-

Teressa Jones blujayy agree, as long as the other person agrees as well.

PROTECTED TWEETER I agree only if the other person KNOWS you’re joking. If you’re the only one laughing, it’s cruel.

PROTECTED TWEETER Disagree. What is funny to 1 person may be hurtful to another person.

Leon from 502MS 502MS well, it depends on the person. What if your teasing gave them a complex?

anthony cousins 465media disagree.. truth is, flirting is just like “kicking tires”

PROTECTED TWEETER depends on the person..everyone can’t take teasing and you MUST know when ENOUGH is ENOUGH.

Piddleproductions Piddlepro as long as you don’t step on someone’s boundaries and verbalize it’s all in fun.

TraceyEsq treschic67 Teasing really isn’t OK.Some folks go overboard & take things 2 far”if you don’t have anything nice 2 say,say nothing at all”

Sasha X. Zeromind xsashagirl Agree, although some folks get sensitive.

Jason Stover TankaBar_JasonD well you can over do it. It can be hurtful if you do it wrong. some just do it too much. it is ok, but too much is bad.

B.Price estaesmivida disagree

Linda Bilyeu sunshine625 Agree

Daniel Walker walkerdl Yes. Esp. if you have a good relationship w/that person

Corrine Johnson LadyJay91 I have to disagree teasing is not always harmless & can be hurtful. One has to be very careful with it.

mayqueen79 mayqueen79 Teasing is harmless if you know that the person can take it. If they get their feelings hurt, it is no longer harmless.

Isaac dingane1 unless a person is intending to follow through teasing is inappropriate

PROTECTED TWEETER Teasing just aint right! (I’ve been guilty though.)

Pettra Tyus-Mapp Pettra88 Disagree, “Sticks and stones…” was a lie! Words hurt more and last longer.

Tomi Clark tclarkusa I disagree. Words hurt. This holds true not only for kids, but adults as well.

Nick Fury nickfury01 I agree!…and they can’t too sensitive!…it helps of they can “dish it out” as well!…lol!

Orion Dauphin ObiOrion perhaps this is harsh but teasing helps identify the weak & builds resilience & strength in those who get past it on both sides

Vicky BLKMGK Agree. Teasing is a part of camaraderie, put its not for everyone.

Risha Holmes rishaholmes I think it is best to err on the side of caution and not do it, because how does one really know how the other person feels?

Gloria A NightShade10 a joke is only funny if it’s funny to both people, otherwise that “teasing” can take on a rather abusive nature and tone

Reasy F. Baby! Mo_Rease Some people can’t take the teasing, If a person goes too far, that’s when trouble arises.

lt md20737 WRONG PPL SENSITIVE

Darryl Mims Write_Of_Fusion Good morning! Only if that other person is cool with it. Sometimes they may think u r getting 2 personal, even if it’s a joke.

Jackie Young MsJayye disagree; some ppl take teasing too far plus we don’t know what others are dealing w/ moment 2 moment

R. A. Mills AbayKamau Nuetral. Teasing is relative as the brunt of the joke is determined by the “teasee’s” mood” it can begin or negate an arguement

Stephanie Hargrove shargrove I disagree. You never know what’s going on with someone and what hurts. Positive reinforcement goes a long way.

Joshua Gibson JoshDamage disagree. If a person is taking exception to what is being said I believe the fun is over.

DesignsByOnye DesignsByOnye Disagree. Teasing can cut to the heart and the (painful) truths are always told ‘in jest’.
