After the privacy survey, I learned that the reason I probably got the way I am regarding privacy, comes from my enviornment and family. The way I grew up,
the extended family all gossiped about each other, and everybody tried to get into everyone else's business, and offer their own opinions when they were not asked for.

they (or I ) have an abboucement to maek or gice, they will do so when they want tp, and when they (ot I ) personally decide the time is right. I guard my privacy
enought that I can, and sometimes do, get angry whn someone tells my business or gets into mine.
