What is negging, the toxic flirting technique?

À propos de cet épisode

Right from primary school age, we tell children that if another boy or girl has teased them, it’s “because they like them”. And playful teasing happens a lot in dating well into adulthood. If it’s ever happened to you, you might have laughed along out of fear of appearing oversensitive. But really it’s a form of verbal abuse, which is often used intentionally to manipulate another person’s emotions, undermining their self-esteem. Where does the name come from? What kind of things do neggers say? How do I know if someone is negging me? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!
