stop telling women to smile

It could mean that when men tell women to smile, they are imposing their own ideas or narratives. Maybe they want women to conform to a certain image that makes them feel more comfortable, rather than respecting women's true emotions at that moment.

We should stop telling scary stories because they can cause unnecessary fear and anxiety, especially to those who are easily frightened, like young children or people with a sensitive disposition.

One way is through education. By teaching people about gender equality and respect for individual autonomy, we can make men more aware of the inappropriateness of such behavior.

Just be straightforward and tell them that scary stories make you uncomfortable or that they're not appropriate for the current situation.

Try to focus on the present moment. When you catch yourself telling a story in your mind, shift your attention to what's happening around you right now.

"Picking Flowers and Smiling" was a story from Jin Yong's novel. The story was about a man named Duan Yu. He was a young monk in the Supreme Court of Dali. His good friend was a man named Xu Zhu. Duan Yu and Xu Zhu studied together in the Supreme Court. They had a deep relationship and cared for each other. Duan Yu and Xu Zhu were both very smart, but Duan Yu was kinder and more generous, while Xu Zhu was more quick-witted and flexible. One day, Duan Yu and Xu Zhu heard that the Emperor of Dali was going to choose a new Empress, and they decided to run together. But Duan Yu and Xu Zhu were both chosen, but they didn't know what to do. In the end, Duan Yu thought of a way to show his martial arts and intelligence to make the emperor like him more. Xu Zhu used his wit and intelligence to let the Emperor recognize his merits. At the end of the story, Duan Yu and Xu Zhu were successfully elected as the empress. Together, they ruled Dali for the benefit of the people.

We might need to stop telling the story because it has been told too many times and has become boring. People may lose interest and it's time to move on to something new.

Well, it has multiple meanings. Firstly, it provides a platform for women to be heard. Often, women's voices are marginalized in society. When they tell stories to each other, they are validating their own experiences. Secondly, these stories can be about a wide range of topics from motherhood to career achievements. It enriches the female narrative and gives a more accurate picture of women's lives.

Try to focus more on asking questions to others. When you are more interested in their stories, you'll be less likely to tell your own. For example, instead of saying 'I had a great trip last week', ask 'Have you had any interesting trips lately?'

First, be aware of the reasons why you tell lie stories. Is it to avoid getting in trouble or to seem more interesting? Once you know the cause, you can start to address it.
