Hot take: This is gonna sound conceited to introverts but “shutting the fuck up so others can talk and contribute” IS society forcing extroverts to do exactly what you said. When an extrovert isn’t talking they are probably deliberately holding back because it’s socially polite
this isn't even about 'letting others talk'. it's just nice to have moments where folk can simply be in each other's company and not be required to converse
Extroverts can listen, it is the overall interaction that they crave.
Talkativity is a defining feature of extraversion
This is not true based on any existing definition. You're referring to a subset of talkative people
It’s literally discussed in the Wikipedia definition…
No, it's not.
