But is it really "bad"? Seems to me even if you say it is "bad" there are probably benefits to the behavior in certain situations. Just as lying is often beneficial- and, in fact, when testing people to find out which people are successful socially- it has been found that lying is highly correlated to social success. But I have trouble calling behaviors "bad"- I prefer to use adaptive and non-adaptive.
