In humans, shyness (also called diffidence) is a social psychology term used to
describe the feeling of apprehension, lack of confidence, or awkwardness
experienced when a person is in proximity to, approaching, or being approached
by other people, especially in new situations or with unfamiliar people. The
term is often used by laypersons as a blanket-term for a family of related and
partially overlapping afflictions, including timidity around new people,
bashfulness and diffidence, lack of assertiveness, apprehension and anticipation
of interaction, social anxiety, or intimidation. Shyness may come from
personality introversion, genetic traits, or the environment in which a person
is raised. Shyness is considered to be a neutral personality trait by people who
are not shy, but a very negative trait by those who are shy themselves.
Today emo is more commonly tied to fashion than to music, and the term "emo" is
sometimes stereotyped with tight jeans on males and females alike, long fringe
(bangs) brushed to one side of the face or over one or both eyes, dyed black,
straight hair, tight t-shirts(sometimes short sleeved) which often bear the
names of emo bands (or other designer shirts), studded belts, belt buckles,
canvas sneakers or skate shoes or other black shoes (often old and beaten up)
and thick, black horn-rimmed glasses. This fashion has at times been
characterized as a fad.
Excessive shyness, embarrassment, self consciousness and timidity, social-phobia
and lack of self-confidence are also components of erethism, which is a symptom
complex that appears in cases of mercury poisoning
