Post Body

I recently noticed that I might have different views/moral values depending on the language used. When I listen to music or watch movies/videos, I'm okay with swearing and suggestive contents in English but not when they're in my native language. I somehow found them cringe or uncomfortable to hear and see compared to when in English. Maybe because my native culture is different from English and it somehow got associated with the language. It's pretty fascinating so I wonder if anyone else experience this too?

oh totally! when i speak in different languages i feel like my personality tweaks a bit. like in Spanish i feel more expressive and maybe funny? and in English i'm a bit more to the point. it's weird how language can flip your persona a bit. anyone else gets this?
