You can live without someone's respect, since most likely you've been living most of your life without the respect of people you don't well, whether they're people you just met at work or people you've known for a while. Your soul might not be replaceable though.
I'd rather be me than you or anybody else, even if nobody likes/respects me for it. Anybody can be trained to do something as a skill, but nobody can train somebody to be who they are, you are who you are for a reason. Respect isn't everything. Becoming a functional part of a machine to get respected isn't any good for me.

Get the Respectmug. Hym "You are not 'turned on by respect' you bitch. You are a Goddamn bitch. Hey, you know what I'm turned on by? You want to know? I'm turned on by fucking relationships! That's what I'm turned on by. Do you believe that? Do you believe that thing I just said? I'm turned on but long term sexless relationships! I'm turned on my platonic friendships with women! That's what I'm turned on by. Fucking idiot."

Get the Respectmug. “Respect” has a multitude of contexts typically meaning:
“Tolerant” (being patient with, or accepting someone for who they are.)
or
“Admiration” (Really liking somebody, finding them to be really cool, honorable, etc.)
People often misconstrue the two.
Then there’s “Respect” that people in authority or power demand. (Government, Kings, parents, teachers, police, etc.) Which simply means in that context: “to be feared,” or “to be obedient to” and to follow orders without question or complaint.
Not everyone is going to like or admire you for who you are. That’s fine, and it should be earned. I hear this all the time, and it’s true.
But EVERYONE should at least be tolerated and treated fairly, regardless of their race, religion, opinions, status, passions, etc. Whether it’s a human being, animal, or otherwise.
At least if they can’t be accepted or admired by you that is.
Otherwise we can’t get along as a race, and will constantly fight and try to change each other, instead of accepting each other for who we are.
Respect/Tolerance is the glue that binds us together.
Without it...
There would be absolute chaos, and destruction amongst ourselves.
Respect. ✊

Get the Respectmug. Respect is not essential to life. You dont need anybody else's respect to live, and they dont need yours. The most chicken shit people are the ones who wont stand alone when nobody likes or respects them. Gangs are full of chicken shits.
Britney Spears and a gang member aren't so different, they stand only with a group, only when they're in the majority, outnumbering the other guy. Nobody needs respect to keep going, and not being respected doesn't stop anybody.

Get the Respectmug. When you have to relieve yourself of your blue balls (the Unblown soldier) by busting a nut. Or just beating off in general.
“Man Amanda was pounding me off but didn’t finish the job so I had to go to the shower because I was paying respects at the tomb of the unblown soldier via burial at sea.”
