Interesting topic. The problem with the word "judgmental" is that people always respond that it's impossible not to be judgmental. And they have a point: we make judgments about things all the time.

So "judgmental" has to mean more than just being inclined to make judgments. TO ME, being judgmental implies an unwillingness (and often inability) to imagine anyone else's point of view. You're not required to ADOPT anyone else's point of view, but a clear sign of intelligence is an ability to understand how other people feel. By the same token, a clear sign of a lack of intelligence is an inability how other people feel.

Nice to have You back, Lam. i suppose i agree that an inability to empathise...or at least suspend judgment...is a sign of immaturity. Yet i also place a value on political activism; volunteering in one's community, and other matters of zero interest in the rarified air of BDSM we sometimes find ourselves in. So, by sorting and attaching different level of value to different behaviors, i am moved to approach or retreat. i can't say it affects no one but me; it affects the other as well.

When WE judge someone else, we're opinionated.

When someone else judges US, they're judgemental.

Don't judge me.....it's just a weak attempt at humor.
