The article I selected is “Caring for your Introvert” by Jonathan Rauch. The purpose with which the author, Rauch, writes this article is to make it clear to everyone about the “real” intent of any introvert. Basically, through his article, he aims to clear any misunderstandings revolving around an introverted person. In doing so, he purposefully introduced instances of any introvert being taken otherwise than their intent. The author also proposes through his article- “the right way” to care for any introvert “you” (the reader) meet. Lastly, he brings justice to his goal by empathizing with all his fellow introverts. Thereby, breaking the stereotype of introverts being arrogant and prideful.
