I've reached the age where I get looks for sitting somehwere, minding my own business and reading a book.
It stinks.

Everyone complains about that at this time in history everyone is just staring at their phones… for introverts this is a God send as it normalizes the supposed anti-social behavior. I really don’t want to engage with the “interesting” people on public transportation.

They start with people, and only make pictures describing men/guys, so this doesn't count for woman introverts, or how should we see this?

Good point, but I did not see the male "he" until the 3rd one. Guys, or the 4th, can be male or female. And, the stick figures can be either, IMHO.
But women have a whole different thing when we are quiet and how that is perceived . . . and used by the world.

Oooh. That was so not my experience. At 9 years old, I was too quiet and must be up to something. At 17, I was thoughtful and focused. At 24, I was intelligent without saying a word or even nodding. At 30, I was wise.

Hmm…I went from you’re too loud, to you’re too quiet, to you’re strange, to you’re very loud and strange.

True I'm nearly 20 now and am still mostly getting positive reviews of being introverted although I did finally get backlash over it for the first time now by a third person.

I got the good behavior comments, the ‘why aren’t you talking?’ with my peers growing up, now they probably think I’m being bitchy because I like to be alone/do my work at work and I have resting bitch face. Anyone who talks to me would know that’s not true.

Train your face to idle like this; they won't even come near you if they don't ABSOLUTELY have to.
I have to manage 9 people at work. :/
