| житель Востока | Easterner (The Eastern culture is shame based. For Easterners, everything is about image and how others see them. If your ethos is shame based, all you care is to preserve your image. The opposite of shame is honor. You can do wrong but as long as no one sees it, your image is not tarnished and you can still be seen as an honorable person. In a shame based culture, wrong and right have no meaning, and image is more important than facts. It is all about shame and honor. If the stain of shame is removed, honor is restored. Easterners are mostly concerned about losing face and upholding their image) |
