What does the fear of being judged by others hold you back from doing that you would otherwise do? (sopuli.xyz)

To be fair I still do these things but only when I'm alone.

Personally I love finding big puddles and then dig drains with a stick or my heel and watch the water flow.

Also love to throw a piece of wood into water and then toss stones high up in the air and try hit it imagining it's a warship I'm trying to bomb.

Then also without going into details there are some pieces of clothing I would like to wear but don't because they're considered femine or gay.

Basically everything. Telling a joke that I love. Showing excitement for something I love. Doing my silly voices; especially my batman and girl voice. Taking my shirt off. And so much more. Damn social anxiety and confidence issues.

Having a friend that randomly speaks like batman (or a girl too, but batman) sounds like a lot of fun!

The batman voice makes me break out in a coughing fit but I guess so haha

Being able to do both a batman and a girl voice is pretty damn cool. Silly voices in general are my jam, I love doing Stitch impressions

[–] Monster96@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I used to be able to do a perfect Stitch impression before my voice dropped. Now I just sound like Herbert the Pervert from Family Guy haha

Somehow, I was only able to do it after my voice dropped. No idea how that works

Silly voices are the best, they'll always enjoyed by your (future) kids/nieces/nephews/etc.
Keep practicing your craft, you'll find an appreciative audience sooner or later :)
