Nope fear is not a sign of weakness. Fear usually kicks in when you're aboot to do something that won't leave you unscathed. I.E when you think aboot going into an abandoned building. (where im from ppl usually use those for drug stashing you don't wanna be caught in there) Fear of the unknown is the other thing that causes humanity to strive for knowledge. All in all fear is many things. do you agree?

Agreed. To add, fear is what makes everything you do real thus making you alert so it's not easy to categorize as a weakness. Unless of course if someone would be faced with a really strong sensation of fear that would cripple them, then that would be a weakness like a surgeon who is doing an open heart surgery and got hit by his fear of death.Nope fear is not a sign of weakness.

I think fear makes you stronger and you can learn something from it. I remember i was at risk of dropping out of college and that sparked up a little bit of fear. It make me realize what i am doing is dumb, trying to drop out on purpose. It took a bit longer but i am on the right track now.

To me. I guess i just believe it gets in the way. Like some sort of emotion, the way emotions cloud your judgement and resoning sometimes.

Fear is a natural response. How you react is a different story.A person who can literally feel no fear has, in my opinion, lost self-preservation instincts.

This topic reminds me of this one book I saw in the Young Adult section of the Library once. It was about a girl that was and I quote; "born without the fear gene." I didn't read it since I was 14 or so and thought the idea of a gene that codes for fear was stupid. Besides, I found this other awesome book that was about time warps and interdimensional rifts and stuff.Back on topic though, I guess it depends on the situation and the culture that you are raised in.

Fear is NOT a sign of weakness... The fearless are the first to die. If a army man walked into the battlefield without a single grain of fear, he would forget about the dangers he is in. Fear is what keeps us alive in many situations.Having fear does not make you weak, also because overcoming a fear can only be done either by mistake or by someone who is strong, or stronger then they thought.

I don't think fear is a sign of weakness because it is what makes you stronger. When you're trying to overcome that fear, you're fighting against fear and once you do overcome it, you've beaten fear itself, which can be very strong.

Exactly!
I know it sounds weird, but it is the "ultimate corruptor" It will mess with your mind. If fears end up controling you or making you powerless, then what would you call that? Weakness, or a type of weakness in my opinion. You can only become stronger avoiding such fears or conquering them.
