How can you tell if you're too soft as a person

If you react too much

If you cant bench/squat/deadlift 1 plate on each side then you're soft.

I dunno son, I think most people could bench/squat/deadlift the smallest plates and then be like 'Oh, I'm not soft!'

if you have to ask you are indeed too soft. Go fight the smallest person you know then work your way up until you get a fight against Ronda Rousey. Then kick her teeth in and then literally rape her on national television then you won't be soft anymore

one plate is 20kg lol

Go do something where if you fuck up, you die.

Not that my hulking mass would know, but I'm almost positive I've seen 1.25kg plates knocking about.

Those aren't considered plates, those are considered weights. Plates are 20kg+

>>17546492
I'm soft and I can benchpress and deadlift 20kgs. I can't squat in general because my knees are blown (hence I'm soft), but still, 20kgs is fart in the wind for most.

That doesn't sound right, but I don't know enough about plates to dispute it.

Either way, there must be a lot of people using the wrong terminology for plates then.

Don't interpret your sensitivity as a weakness.

If you harden up and care less about the world around you, what kind of person does that make you? A less caring considerate person than you were before. But at least you're "Tougher" now right? See the problem there?

Just have the courage to be yourself and expressively respond honestly to things in the world around you. Don't feel ashamed for being yourself and don't let anyone get this idea in your head that you're a weak bitch for caring about something they can't find it in their hearts to care about.

Not OP, but being "sensitive" is a huge problem for me. It's not very useful at all in a lot of situations.
I feel like I've become a bit less sensitive over time however, and I think the way I've done it is building up a sort of shell and learning to control how my reactions appear instead of what they actually are.

That's my advice to you OP, learn to not betray how you feel unless you want to and it's functionally the same as not being sensitive for appearances sake. If you want to be less sensitive for personal piece of mind, that's a different subject.
