I have noticed people are afraid to speak their mind, I guess its cause they dont want to hurt feelings or they just dont have the balls to be honest. So they become passive aggressive and even hateful. Why not say whats on your mind? Whats the worst that can happen?
The worst that can happen (and it happens more often than not) is that the person receiving the message can't handle the truth. They can't handle what a person says on his/her mind. Many people say they want the other person to say what's on their mind. However when the other person does so, the recipient either gets mad, highly defensive, frustrated, or all of the aforementioned.
You can even see it in many threads. The forums are an open discussion for opinions etc... Yet some people get upset if your opinion is different from theirs. Imagine how they act offline   
It's easier said than done when one states they can handle what the other person says on his/her mind. And I'm not talking disrespectful either.
Bottom line is that most can't handle it. They are sensitive, can't handle the truth, and or save face. With that being said, it's not so much the person doesn't have the balls. They just don't want to go through a BS argument that may happen so they avoid the whole situation altogether.
I'm a type of person that will speak my mind 8/10 times depending on 1. Situaion 2. Knowing the recipient. Sometimes it takes a wise person to just back off of what could potentially become an ignorant petty argument if he/she knows the recipient is highly sensitive, can't handle the truth, constructive criticism, etc. But even then, bestman will still state what's on his mind in a respectable manner. How the recipient chooses to rebuttle will then dictate how I come back.
And then you have times when a person will try to push your buttons for the sake of doing so. Again, a wise person doesn't stoop down to petty arguments. A wise person's intelligence always stops and another persons ignorance.

The one that kills me is every woman's profile lists camping as an activity they love. Now, truthfully, how many women on her have been camping more than once in there lives? I don't mean going to Yellowstone in an RV. I mean sleeping on the ground, in the woods, you know, real camping? I'm a guy and I'll tell you, you'd have to hog tie me and drag me into those woods!! So be truthful, how many of you really go camping?

Dude I used to go camping every single weekend and would do so again if I had a camping partner. I love it more than words can say.  
In a tent with a campfire and smores. No air mattress

I don't do camping and my idea of 'roughing it' means no microwave! 
Seriously.....I'm honest but after speaking the truth recently was told I was bordering on brutality.... There are a lot of wussies out there and some just need to toughen up a bit.

yea these "fun-loving" profiles make me laugh. come on, fun loving? wow.... they're so generic: "i am happy and energetic and i love life! i run around outside and am happy with my life even though i really am not! oh, and i am FUN TO BE AROUND TOO!" ... how can you say that you are fun to be around when you're you? meh... i dont know. people need to be honest and stop lying about every little detail - are people not proud to be themselves anymore?
i have more quips but i wont sit here all day typing them. =P
Although some people lie intentionally, I think most of the people actually see themselves the way they describe themselves in the profile. JMO
