THICK HEADEDNESS Meaning and Definition

It is the quality or characteristic of someone who is resistant to new ideas, opinions, or suggestions, displaying a lack of open-mindedness or flexibility. This term often describes individuals who are unwilling to consider alternative perspectives or change their own views.

    Thick headedness can manifest in various situations, such as during debates, decision-making processes, or discussions. Those afflicted with this trait may have a fixed mindset, leading them to dismiss or overlook valuable input, constructive criticism, or logical reasoning. Their refusal to acknowledge or adapt to differing viewpoints can hinder progress, cooperation, and effective communication.

    Individuals displaying thick headedness may exhibit a tendency to rely solely on personal beliefs, experiences, or limited knowledge, disregarding objective facts or evidence.

Etymology of THICK HEADEDNESS

The word "thick-headedness" is a compound word, consisting of two elements: "thick" and "headedness".

The adjective "thick" dates back to Old English as "thicce" and has remained relatively unchanged throughout the centuries. It originally referred to a physical dimension, meaning "having a large extent between two opposite surfaces" or "not thin". Over time, "thick" also acquired metaphorical connotations, including "dense" or "stupid". This sense of the word is employed in the context of "thick-headedness".

The second part, "headedness", is derived from the noun "head". In its most basic form, "head" comes from Old English "heafod" and has been used to refer to the body part where the brain is located. Metaphorically, "head" has been associated with intelligence, thinking, or mental capacity.
