Search Results: her cry

So as an adjective the term “weird” doesn’t sound too bad:

suggesting something supernatural; uncanny.
"the weird crying of a seal"

But as a verb the definition of “weird” sounds really bad:

induce a sense of disbelief or alienation in someone. Example: "blue eyes weirded him out, and Ivan's were especially creepy"

Anyway I guess it all comes to down whether you find a person unpredictable or not to label them “weird”.

So say for example you see some creepy looking stranger walking down the road muttering “weird” things and making odd gestures then that’s obviously bad weird. He might not be actively doing anything wrong/criminal. But he puts people on edge nonetheless.

However what about seeing a talented yet bizarre musician perform or getting into a conversation with interesting yet very eccentric conspiracy theorist. These are “cool” weird people. Their strange and uncanny but they aren’t threatening.
They are highly unorthodox so it’s not something you see everyday. Maybe their crazy, maybe their geniuses or maybe both. But they keep things interesting from time to time.

Yet those bizarre (yet harmless) people still get labeled “weird” just like the creepy guy walking down the street gets called “weird”.

Anyway from my observations women typically have a much more negative definition of “weird” then men do. They see “weird” as more threatening.
