Self-deprecating geniuses who admire & promote the accomplishments of others are probably the most lovable & attractive ppl in the world.

That is the modesty I admire. But I'm straying into semantics which never does anything to address the problem. Slut-shaming is bad. Stop it

Modesty in the sexual sense is outdated & usually sexist nonsense because its negative is 'immodesty'. Lets not normalise this.

Yes. That's why I'm talking about the definition I respect and the one I don't & saying logic of former doesn't work anyway.
