As I have mentioned before, my brother is really charismatic and fun and he gets a lot of positive attention because of that. Me, I am more the boring, socially awkward type.

Well, something I have been picking up on recently is that my brother seems to have a really contemptious, disparaging attitude towards those who are, like me, boring and socially awkward. I do not want to go into specifics for privacy reasons, but the gist of it is that he is always going on tirades against people whom he perceives as trying to be cool and interesting when they are actually not. It seems as though he has some weird disdain for the idea that someone wants to improve their self image. As someone who is boring and socially awkward and does seek to be more cool and interesting, I find this sort of disturbing. I also don't understand it. I always find myself sympathizing with the "underdog" or the less fortunate person and I would think most people would feel the same way. What would cause someone to harbor this kind of contempt for people simply because he perceives them as being inferior?
