Oh, another great example of a social four conundrum: allen ginsberg said he never would have published howl if he'd known his father would have been able to read it. He figured, small publishing company, off my father's radar. He said he would have been too embarrassed and ashamed (all the sexual imagery and bad words). Shame is the big deal for the social four, the shame of what it entails to be different, the shame of not living up to your or others' expectations, the shame of letting others' down. So yes, it can be an awkward thing to be.
