In our society it is a well-informed stigma that our personas are divided into introverts and extroverts. The society at large is a composite structure compacted with such individuals that boast a ‘loud’ or rather quiet personality.
Introverts are a group of people who keep to themselves, not because they are shy but rather they seem to like a more secluded company. With a more reserved personality, smaller groups and low key gatherings are their main scope of interaction.
Though generally being by themself is their safe haven. In the fast moving and closely connected world of today being an introvert comes with its own set of concerns.
Extroverts are more so a lively bunch, who like interactions and are more open to invitations to large balls and communions. They have a distinct energy; much like as introverts like to keep to shadows, extroverts stay in broad day light.
A sharp difference in these two personalities leads to a seemingly more bias nature, favouring extroverts more than introverts as the society and the culture of today is very open with encouragement focused on communication. Where there is a lack of communication, such is the case with the introvert individual, the crowd generally avoids them.
In the world of fashion and social media, there is a common similarity, generally, those with bigger personalities draw more attention and hence more likeability. Bloggers and influencers who have made a name for themselves have come out of themselves to show off their daily lives in the most unique ways.
No one wants to see a travel blog or an IGTV where a person can’t be seen. It’s a redundant practice these days, having a profile picture of ones favorite character or sceneries, it barely gains an audience.
We simple like to be an audience of someone captivating, with an enthralling personality. A person with humor, charisma and an overall sense of what they’re doing. At least that’s what the social media demands and we can’t say no to these personalities and their alluring feeds.
On the other hand, the down side of keeping to oneself is that you’re often missed out and just disappear. Where there are a thousand faces, there are a thousand voices. We must push back our introvert selves to introduce a brighter version of ourselves.
This eclipse in persona in the only dynamic that can propel us to a more ‘adjustable’ setting to make a mark in what we deem as the extrovert society of today.
