It's black and white.I understand where you're going with this, but truth and fact aren't usually considered to be synonymous. http://www.differencebetween.info/difference-between-fact-and-truth Essentially, what someone means when they say they're speaking their truth is that they're conveying their personal experience. --- Good vibes only ...

Essentially, what someone means when they say they're speaking their truth is that they're conveying their personal experience So say that. In my experience, or what happened to me. "My truth" is the wrong way of wording it because you make it subjective whereas truth implies nothing but objective facts. --- ...for it is better to be alone than in bad company. ...

Truth =/= facts.
If I believe what I'm saying, I can still be wrong but also be truthful about it. TC is just trying to be "well ackshully" about a nonissue. --- Rainbow Dashing: "it's just star wars" AutumnEspirit: *kissu* ... Copied to Clipboard!

"My truth" and "lived experiences" are just polite ways of dressing up an anecdote to make it sound like something bigger than an anecdote. It's no different than saying that you knew a guy who had something happen once.

"My truth" is the wrong way of wording it because you make it subjective whereas truth implies nothing but objective facts.I mean truth literally does not mean objective facts. It can be used as a synonym for facts, but it doesn't necessarily mean the same thing as "facts". I don't see why this is something that anyone should get annoyed about. This is reeking of "those damn kids and their new slang that I don't understand", except in this case the slang is actually an already accepted usage of the word. --- Good vibes only ...

It just sounds stupid and disingenuous. As I said if someone said they were going to tell me "their" truth I'd just assume they were lying.
