Question
What is a self-critical attitude according to Eastern culture?
✓

Answer

  • Self-critical attitudes: Another important feature of Asian culture is the important role of self-critical attitudes in mutual trust and support.
  • In Asian society, if a person criticizes his own shortcomings, he gets sympathy and support from others.
  • Here it is not considered good for a person to describe his own qualities.
  • There is an old American saying, "If you can't say anything constructive, you don't have to say anything."
  • When people in Asian culture or society say, 'If you can't admit your shortcomings, you shouldn't expect sympathy from others.'
  • Thus, we can say that Americans consider "what they believe" and Asian "what people believe" important for well-being.
