Everytime I came across the word 'Hypocrite' Id have to look into the dictionary just to get a better understanding of the term,wrt. different contexts it always got different!It always has been easy to relate to hippocrism when it is attributed to someone someone whose behaviour & character is easily distinguishable as someone showing 'Double standards'.
The Oxford dictionary states 'Hypocrisy' ; Behaviour in which a person pretends to have higher standards than in the case!
Well,this was why I never felt right to use the term in any conversation!It really would be easy to read & understand when it is some mean ,vain character who is the accused.
To accuse someone of being a hypocrite would my dear watson be a little too hypocritic itself!
As per me,everybody is a hypocrite is some way!Atleast a confident,succesful person would be.Its just overlooking their flaws,undermining them and walking on smooth ground until-----someone shows up with misattributes that youve been pretending you have no posession of!
Im sure you have grimaced and smirked your dainty nose when someone has indecently belched aloud in your presence,but I just cant imagine there exists a single healthy human being who hasnt belched even a single time, after a sumptuous meal!
Now if that is not being a little hypocritic.....then what is?
