catatonic

Person suffering from extreme fear or anxiety, usually as part of their anxiety, personality, or psychotic disorders.
They do not move, not because they can't or because they are lazy, but because of fear, embarrassment, bad feelings.
Most of social anxiety sufferers resume normal moving, when they are alone. They only freeze when near people.
Besides not moving, they have other symptoms such as headache, toothache, jaw pain, because these organs freeze too.

When guests arrived at my house, my body started to shake, sweat, and I could not move for few hours.
When they left, I resumed my normal activities. Hell of a day! I think I am a catatonic.

Societal Castration

The softening of society as a whole. We have accepted more than ever and seem to fight back less and less.

Just like a newly married man, his testicals have been cutoff and he doesn't know how to think for himself anymore without direction from his wife. You know this happened when your friend can't go out anymore without first clearing it with his wife.

Societal Castration is similar. One that once thought they were in control have given up control and taken on a "Whatever" style mentatility because they don't think they can effectuate change without pissing off many different groups of people.

Little Johnny used to make great jokes. Things have changed and now his momma and teacher have much greater influence over him. Due to Societal Castration Johnny doesn't know what to do, doesn't know who to joke about or who to poke fun at without the risk of pissing off everyone around him. He is not scared but knows its not worth the risk. It's the old mantra of if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. Sometimes something funny isn't always nice. Sigh.....

Citations

References to a body of work for which the author is credited. It's how you would determine the quality of, say, a piece of psychological literature.

Hym *buzzer noise* "WRONG!!! Just because you are trying to collectively deny me the credit half does not mean that you get to ignore the 'reference' half of the citations. To say that it is decent is to lie blatantly. It is objectively and quantifiably good. I also have people adopting my mode of being and banging your daughter and more famous than everyone. HAHAHAHAHA! OBJECTIVITY! It's great for when petty cowards try to deny you! How many references? How many citations? Do I have more than Dr. Buss? Do I have more than him? Hahaha!"
