Re: What kind of people do you trust and/or alternatively not trust?

[(Anonymous)]

People who actively dislike cats get my distrust. I'm often willing to give people who actively dislike dogs a chance, mostly because the majority of people I've encountered who actively dislike dogs do so because they've had bad experiences with violent, aggressive, or otherwise poorly trained/uncontrolled dogs, but people who actively dislike cats...it almost always seems to boil down to them being angry that they can't cow and control a cat as easily as they can a dog (or a person they think is beneath them.) I've met exactly one person who disliked cats for any other reason (with her it was because a cat attacked her as a kid and left her with a lifelong fear of them.) I don't think it's a coincidence that virtually all the people I've met who've hated cats have been men, either. That particular trait of hating anything you can't abuse into submission seems to be particular to a specific type of really unpleasant dude.

I'm sure you're going to get flack for this, but I largely agree. I do think there's a definite correlation between "I hate cats" and "I hate creatures I can't control, and I hate giving attention and affection to creatures that don't blindly adore me."

I don't care if someone prefers dogs to cats, but if they hate cats I probably don't trust them.

I agree. I don't distrust people who are afraid of cats, because in that case I can believe they had a bad experience as a kid, even if they don't necessarily remember it. But people who actively hate cats usually hate that they aren't dogs and don't have the same need to please us and can't be controlled in the same way.

Those people don't like that human-cat relationships are give and take and people have to compromise with cats. Someone like that is probably going to be like that in other areas of their life too and insist on always being right and having their way. I just don't trust that kind of person.
