There are many instances in life where a person is either in the agree or disagree side of the situation. Though many people exercise freedom of expression, I found some disucssion and posts (mostly, the author's comments) here in mylot that more on the agreeable side rather than on the confrontational side. I don't know what exactly what it means but I guess more people are more comfortable with the topics posted and the discussion topics rather than being in discomfort. Also, it also varies on the interests and the views expressed. But in real life, what would you rather be - a an agreeable person (not exactly a yes man) or a person who confronts the issues?

Depends on the circumstances to be honest with you. There are many battles both online and in life, that really are not worth fighting. I just don't feel like wasting my breath or my typing on something. Of course, if I don't have too much of an opinion, I'm just willing to nod my head or just not really bothering to comment on the situation all together. After all, if I don't care, I'll just most likely degree by default. There are a lot of fights in the world that might be worth getting my opinion out on. In a good-natured way of course. There is nothing better than a nice healthy debate, that are going to allow us to really think about the situation at hand. Providing of course, it is nice and civil and everyone states their opinions as calmly(or as calmly as it really does happen). Still yeah, circumstances do dictate what I am.

It does not mean that if you always agreed to a certain issue, your a yes person.Yet we find it more practical sometimes to end an issue that could possibly be a major complication to the persons involved.
