In your experience, is this something that people do only *within* the identity group, only *outside* the identity group, or both?https://twitter.com/GeniesLoki/status/1304848093414916097 …

For the "geek" example it seems to be primarily a within-identity-group thing in my experience, although I'm low confidence that my experience is typical.

That's useful, because I have experience with outside-identity-group cases (and also had low confidence in how typical this was, thus question.) Hm.

Although now that I think about it more, it might be both rather than primarily within-identity-group. Not sure.

Hmm. Tried to generate a bunch of hypotheses and discarded most of them. Closest I've got is it feels childish? Childish isn't quite what I mean but it's somewhere in that direction

Childish is when you're too legible about your intentions because you haven't learned to properly disguise them yet

Maybe but it feels like it's not quite that. It seems more like inappropriate enthusiasm? Like when a child really wants you to play with them and you'd rather be doing something else but they won't take no for an answer.
