I love reading and sometimes I can NOT put that book down so I read every chance I get even if it’s in public and I’ve had my friends tell me I’m performative when they know damn well I read almost every second.

its a weird world where staring at your phone in public is normal and acceptable but reading - i dont know... Going out for lunch and sitting on the patio with a book is hard to beat

reading in public is literally so normal older ppl do it but when younger ones do it it’s performative? doesn’t make sense

Performative is scrolling through your phone with no signal 😃

Honestly why do we still care what people think about us? If someone sees me acting “performative” or whatever, let them 🤣

The only reason I stopped reading in public because i get pissed if I get to a good part and have to stop. Then my whole day ruined until I can continue reading 😂😂😂 so for my mental health, I wait until I can read uninterrupted lol

I actually mostly read outside… Usually on my commute to work, because I always think, “I have an hour where I have nothing to do. I might as well read something.” I like reading in the park too. Didn’t know people thought it was performative. Oh well. 🤷🏽‍♀️

Some people can't comprehend not everyone is performing for audience like they do. What's even the benefit to pretend to read in public?
