I guess the share of income was a bit of a red herring. I’m more questioning “what is ‘pressures’ and what makes it bad?” The word pressures has a bad connotation but what are you actually concerned with in this context?
[As before, good question, and also I am not sure I have enough introspection ability to answer it, but I’ll try. I have a feeling Duncan Sabien would be really good at this]
Social pressure: Telling people that if they won’t do something, they’ll be rejected/outcast in a way that “hurts” in some primal way. I am not saying “never do this”. I am saying “this is a powerful weapon, use it with caution”
Getting someone to make a decision “in the heat of the moment” that the person might regret otherwise, or might not make this decision they thought about it for longer, or that some parts of the person are very much against this decision but don’t get to voice their opinion.
