Sorry, but that just sounds ignorant to me. Circuiteromalaguito says he has a syndrome, but doesn't specify what. Well, I have a couple too and I can tell that it isn't just something you can "snap out of" or study/practice your way out of. It just doesn't work like that, the same way you can't just overcome a broken leg or cancer by willpower and training.
Of course you have a couple - nothing is your fault, and everyone should adapt to your situation. You have stated in this thread you dislike negotiating, and are therefore in favor of everyone else being crippled so that you don't have to do what you dislike. You stated in the eBay thread that it's not your fault that you are unaware of eBay policies, because they are hiding it from you - yet it is written right on the front page of eBay in exactly the same size font as the other text. Virtually everyone in this thread has pointed out where you are wrong or just being silly, and even Dave has warned you and suggested you're bordering on trolling - but none of that matters, because you are right - you know what is best for everyone and nothing is your fault.
That is a serious personality flaw - the lack of personal responsibility.
As for the guy who says he is not good at negotiation, I am not saying he doesn't have a problem or that he "just needs to snap out of it". I am specifically referring to the problem with negotiating that he alluded to, and the fact that he has made progress but still has a way to go. There is no pill one can take that will make one a better negotiator, and there is no psychological realization one will arrive that which will do it either. Practicing that specific skill makes one better at it - just as practicing *anything* makes one better at it.
You are basically condemning large numbers of people to low wages because you think they should have a particular skill, which is largely unrelated to their value as a human being or as an employee in many jobs. Your "solution" is basically to "man up". It's insulting. I'm lucky in that I can negotiate pretty well, but at the same time couldn't fight my way out of a paper bag. People tell me stupid stuff like "just join a gym" or "you look fine". They manage to both imply that somehow it's my fault and that it can't be that bad.
You acknowledged above that negotiation is a fundamental part of our society, and it is absolutely something that can be learned and practiced and anyone can become better in. If someone elects not to improve themselves in this way, they have no standing to complain that they got left out. And expecting people to be responsible for their own development is not insulting at all - it is life. Wanting everyone else to be held back so you can not feel left out is what is insulting. You say you can't fight - not sure what that means, but it appears you are self conscious about perhaps being small. Changing one's body shape is extremely difficult, but it's possible. I am living proof. So yes, if you *choose* not to do something about it, then it is absolutely your fault and I have no sympathy. But joining a gym and exercising and learning about nutrition and eating is hard... better to just blame the rest of society for size and strength being a defining characteristic of males

It's even worse for women because if they do take the advice and take on more masculine qualities they get labelled as a bitch or bossy.
You've repeatedly made this claim and nobody has agreed with you yet (don't let that dissuade you - anyone who doesn't see things your way doesn't just have different experiences or opinions - it just means they are wrong... and if everyone disagrees with you like in this thread, it just means everyone else is wrong).
My girlfriend is in medical drug sales. She is a great negotiator, she is strong willed and is a no-bullshit boss of her team. She is also very successful. You are the only one who has applied labels like "bossy" and "bitch" to those qualities. It seems you are the only one on this thread who is intimidated by such women.
Sorry Corp, you are part of the problem.
Yes, everyone who doesn't agree with you is "the problem" and no matter how many people here disagree with you, they are all just wrong.
Sorry - at this point you are just trolling, and I have a business to run and don't have another 20 minutes to spent on this thread. You will never take responsibility for the things you are deficient in and you will never accept when you are mistaken. There it no point pressing the issue with you because you are just trolling now. I think you have done yourself a huge disservice in this thread and even Dave has pointed it out.
