Insulted? What Not To Do!
About this video
Centeno discusses how men should appropriately handle insults, using the Will Smith and Chris Rock Oscars incident as a case study. He argues that violence should be a last resort and explores various strategies for responding to insults, including assessing escape options, understanding context, and recognizing when criticism contains kernels of truth worth considering.
