They're capable of feeling shame, just not for what you or I feel shame for.
The trick is to find out what hurts them.
You’ve got to make them an outcast to their in group.
So stupid shit like pointing out their hands are nicely manicured (if they are a man) that’s why they wear lifts and shoes too large for their feet.
Or for women you call them a man. That’s why they do it to every woman they hate.
Just observe them. They lay their cards right on the table.
The problem, of course, lies in striking the balance between speaking to them in their own terms, and reinforcing the values that many of their terms reflect.
