   Would life be easier if people had to wear signs telling others their flaws? Why or why not?
   
   Flaws make us who we are, we learn and we grow from them...why do we focus on the negative and not the big picture?

   I would say it would be harder because most people would probably see that sign at face value. Don't get me wrong, I do that as well for the first second, and then I consider, "what asset does that actually translate to" - which can turn a flaw on its head.
   
   For example, if someone's flaw sign says "I am very skeptical of people," the truth behind that flaw could mean they are not as gullible as most. Or, "I am shy," could mean they have an observant nature and actually have learned a lot by watching others. Even with the example in the photo, if someone consistently lies, while I don't condone the act, it can mean they are lying for the better - keeping people's secrets by claiming they don't know anything, etc.

      I agree with you  flaws help you learn and grow and there are reasons and stories behind them.

   Too many people stereotype people by their flaws, and one person's flaw is another person's positive trait. And a flaw in life can be a bonus in some jobs. Being pushy won't win you friends, but it might make you a good sale's person.

      People love T-shirts with ... "If my music is too loud,..." or "That's enough social interaction for today", "I am a winner" - it does set the mood. Mind what you choose.  I have a home-made T-shirt "So long, losers!" (for home use only!)

      Some flaws are better for certain environments...and people are stereotyped for their flaws but the world is too judgmental anyway

   I think a lot of people are blind to many of their own flaws, myself included so wearing a sign might carry inaccurate info. or rather incomplete info.

      I agree with you completely because in our perfect world nothing is wrong with us...something is wrong with everyone else.
