Opinionated

Having and voicing an opinion is different from being opinionated. Opinionated rightly has negative connotations because it means doggedly holding on to your opinions without considering circumstances and/or facts and/or advice/views of others.

I can offer my opinions without being opinionated because I will reevaluate my opinions if I consider it appropriate.

Opinionated

Someone who isn't afraid to give their personal opinion. It doesn't have to be a bad thing. It's just someone that doesn't stay quiet, if they don't agree with something.

The only people who see it as bad and attach stigma (like the other definitions) to it are those that don't like to hear opinionated people talk.


Yes, you can be opinionated and polite at the same time. Being polite doesn't mean you have to agree with every objectionable thing that's said.

Just because I'm opinionated doesn't mean I'm a b*tch. I just like to share my thoughts.
