> I get your point. I absolutely purposefully roll my eyes sometimes and whoever I'm doing it to would be valid for getting mad. But as someone who can't hide any emotion on their face (literally any, I'm the definition of an open book) there have been plenty of times where people blew up at me or laughed because I rolled my eyes when I didn't even realize I had done it. Feel like the people disagreeing with you haven't experienced this problem.

> Only on Reddit would someone so boldly declare something like this to a stranger. I'm on the spectrum so that might have to do with my not being able to hide any emotion (I truly mean that, people can basically read my thoughts just by looking at me, good and bad). I think you've purposefully developed a bad habit of being rude to strangers based on assumptions you've made on causal comments they leave. Consider working on that.

> First its not automatic. I almost never rolled my eyes. Its much easier to control than laughing crying or sneezing. So you just dont make the effort. Its actually a way to express your feeling. You should know that, its your personnality not a human instinctive reaction. And yes not respecting something is disrespectful. Its not that hard to understand. Anyway if i see you.. i dont know having a breakdown after being fired and dumped and start to laugh you'd like that ? If im sad because something good happens to you and show it to you, you would like that ? Honestly you are just trying to justify being a bit of a jerk. I dont blame you or anything we all are jerks sometime but its what you are doing right now.

> Unless you have a tick or something like Tourette’s syndrome, then it’s not an involuntary response. Part of living in a society and not being considered rude is managing your body language. Let me put it this way. “Rudeness” in itself is a social concept. That means it’s decided by the perception of the masses, what we generally agree upon in terms of our symbols of communication, our customs, our beliefs, our values, etc. For you to say that rolling your eyes isn’t disrespectful is not objectively wrong. But according to the society you live in, it is wrong. In layman’s terms, the hill you’re dying on here is completely arbitrary, neither side will ever be truly correct but as long as you live in a society which feels this way then you will be beholden to it anyways.

> It is shown as a sign of disrespect and it shows weakness. I can’t imagine Gandhi, the queen of England or Einstein roll their eyes in front of random people. The reason why they were respected is because they didn’t play any superiority game on front of… inferiors or ignorant people. If something is stupid, get the patience and find enough love within yourself to treat the other ones right. If you roll your eyes in front of a child because his question is “stupid”, what parent does it make you ? If you roll your eyes in front of a bad question because you are an expert in a subject, then it is not your modesty that speaks but your ego. For proof : Even if someone you hate said something intelligent, you might want to roll your eyes just to flatter your ego.

> it's a maturity thing, keep rolling your eyes at 30-40, everyone gonna see you like a kid. you gotta control your emotions, there's no need to do a expression when something is stupid or lame, you got a mouth and you respectfully share what's wrong, if the person in the other end is reluctant to stay on the same boat even after you talk about it. then you don't roll your eyes, you gotta say that there's nothing more you can do, and that you don't agree with it, and most likely leave to dodge any sort of problem.

> I have a tic where I constantly roll my eyes. I’ve had it since I was little, but never noticed it until years later when I high school teacher yelled at me for disrespect.

> Yeah it is when I want to be disrespectful to someone I roll my eyes when they make a point. It might be annoying to them, but it also let's them know I don't give a shit about whatever they just said. Now, I would never to it to my boss, or my teachers while I was in college, but when I was a teen I did it all the time because I was an asshole, who didn't care. It's not a natural reaction lmao, it is learned behavior and it can be a bad habit, but it can be unlearned.

> I agree it’s a pretty natural reaction when people or a given situation is unreasonable. The other options are usually to laugh or get angry. It’s even funnier when Karen’s get mad at it.

> It is a reaction that takes thought and voluntary physicality to perform. If you chose to roll your eyes you are saying to someone that you think less of them or their opinion. It is like shaking your head from side to side, or like wagging your finger from side to side, it is a reaction you can make but it is your choice to do so. There is no environmental reason to roll your eyes: -When lightning strikes, you jump, you don't roll your eyes. -When you have pepper thrown in your face, you blink and might sneeze, you don't roll your eyes. -When you eat something really disgusting, you gag or vomit, you don't roll your eyes. -When you get punched hard in the face, you cry, you don't roll your eyes. You could roll your eyes at any of these events. BUT that is a SARCASTIC response. Not a natural or normal response to an event. You're just a loser who's trying to justify their shitty behaviour. Grow up and stop rolling your eyes, I personally haven't done that since I was a child.

> I might be reading this entirely wrong, but are you maybe a teenager who is being told, repeatedly, that your number 1 duty is to respect your parents? Because I was that teenager, and it sucked. No, I wasn't perfect, but you know who else wasn't perfect? My asshole father, and my mother who refused to stand up to his abuse. But the thing is, when you are a kid, you only know what you've seen and experienced. You don't have a lot of context in life. I was told so many times that God required that I obey and respect my dad at all times, and in every way, and that it didn't matter how horrible he was, my God-ordained duty didn't change. I didn't know how wrong that whole framework was, so I would twist myself into these strange logical pretzels to convince myself that it was OK when I would stand up for myself or my sibling, instead of realizing that the entire framework was wrong. Here's an idea for you to chew on: rolling your eyes at someone is disrespectful and maybe that's not that big a deal. If someone is being an asshole, or abusive, maybe your level of respect isn't at all the central problem. Another thought: you can be 100% right, and still suffer abuse. It's not fair, and it's not right, but it might be good to spend some time thinking about what battles are worth fighting and which ones aren't. It's not fair to ask a kid to be the mature one in a situation like this, but it might be something you need to work on for your own mental or physical safety. Remember that you will get away from this person. It sucks so fucking much but it does end. Stay strong.

My asshole father, and my mother who refused to stand up to his abuse. \nBut the thing is, when you are a kid, you only know what you've seen and experienced. You don't have a lot of context in life. I was told so many times that God required that I obey and respect my dad at all times, and in every way, and that it didn't matter how horrible he was, my God-ordained duty didn't change. I didn't know how wrong that whole framework was, so I would twist myself into these strange logical pretzels to convince myself that it was OK when I would stand up for myself or my sibling, instead of realizing that the entire framework was wrong.\nHere's an idea for you to chew on: rolling your eyes at someone is disrespectful and maybe that's not that big a deal. If someone is being an asshole, or abusive, maybe your level of respect isn't at all the central problem. \nAnother thought: you can be 100% right, and still suffer abuse. It's not fair, and it's not right, but it might be good to spend some time thinking about what battles are worth fighting and which ones aren't. It's not fair to ask a kid to be the mature one in a situation like this, but it might be something you need to work on for your own mental or physical safety. \nRemember that you will get away from this person. It sucks so fucking much but it does end. Stay strong." ]

That means it’s decided by the perception of the masses, what we generally agree upon in terms of our symbols of communication, our customs, our beliefs, our values, etc. For you to say that rolling your eyes isn’t disrespectful is not objectively wrong. But according to the society you live in, it is wrong. In layman’s terms, the hill you’re dying on here is completely arbitrary, neither side will ever be truly correct but as long as you live in a society which feels this way then you will be beholden to it anyways.", ">\n\nTo be fair, if your thinking its stupid or lame, then that is dis-respect.

If something is stupid, get the patience and find enough love within yourself to treat the other ones right. \nIf you roll your eyes in front of a child because his question is “stupid”, what parent does it make you ? \nIf you roll your eyes in front of a bad question because you are an expert in a subject, then it is not your modesty that speaks but your ego.

I’ve had it since I was little, but never noticed it until years later when I high school teacher yelled at me for disrespect.

I was told so many times that God required that I obey and respect my dad at all times, and in every way, and that it didn't matter how horrible he was, my God-ordained duty didn't change. I didn't know how wrong that whole framework was, so I would twist myself into these strange logical pretzels to convince myself that it was OK when I would stand up for myself or my sibling, instead of realizing that the entire framework was wrong.\nHere's an idea for you to chew on: rolling your eyes at someone is disrespectful and maybe that's not that big a deal. If someone is being an asshole, or abusive, maybe your level of respect isn't at all the central problem. \nAnother thought: you can be 100% right, and still suffer abuse. It's not fair, and it's not right, but it might be good to spend some time thinking about what battles are worth fighting and which ones aren't. It's not fair to ask a kid to be the mature one in a situation like this, but it might be something you need to work on for your own mental or physical safety. \nRemember that you will get away from this person.
