Though we certainly feel as if we’ve had this discussion before, gadgets are yet again being blamed for an increase in shyness around the world. ‘Course, we doubt you’d need any fancy degree to understand the cause, but a Harvard Business School researcher and psychologist has insinuated that the ease of communicating in roundabout ways (read: not face-to-face) has caused an increase in the amount of people that feel shy in public. Essentially, it was suggested that “technology is enabling us to opt out of difficult situations and causing people to become more insular,” but hey, it’s hard to argue how much easier life is with a little texting mixed in, no?
