What do introverts not talk about?
Everything, but especially politics, religion, and sexuality.
The same things my parents never talked about. All they had left was violence. When I was a kid they used violence to silence me. When I got far enough away from them, I learned public speaking and have never stopped talking. People who do talk no longer have the advantage they once had.
I resolved to not have any children and married a woman who also didn’t want to have children. We didn’t have any.
If you haven’t started talking, when will you start? Especially about politics, religion and sexuality?
I still do a lot of reading.

BY PHILIP LARKIN
They fuck you up, your mum and dad.
They may not mean to, but they do.
They fill you with the faults they had
And add some extra, just for you.
But they were fucked up in their turn
By fools in old-style hats and coats,
Who half the time were soppy-stern
And half at one another’s throats.
Man hands on misery to man.
It deepens like a coastal shelf.
Get out as early as you can,
And don’t have any kids yourself.

I talk about things that interest me. If others talk about things that don't interest me, I'm usually quiet. My husband's family all think that I'm quiet, when in reality, they're just boring.

I so disliked “small talk” that I avoided the people who talked it. Such as cars, gossip and sports.
In time I learned that my mind was capable of “large talk”. Such as science. I learned about larger things and I enjoyed people paying me well to talk those things.
My baby sister raised two daughters and at 52 years she graduated college.
these are topics that need to get a lot of fresh air and sunshine. applying the mushroom culture leads to what you describe.
