“Pull the hair on my head the wrong way, and I would be on my knees begging for mercy. I have very sensitive follicles.”

Benedict Cumberbatch

Simplified Meaning:

Imagine someone has a very sensitive scalp, and if you pull their hair even a little bit, it causes them a lot of pain. It's similar to how some people have areas where they are more vulnerable or sensitive. In life, everyone has their weak spots—things that may not bother others much but can deeply affect them. For example, a person might usually be strong and confident, but if someone criticizes their work, they might feel very hurt because they value it a lot. Understanding this helps us treat others gently and with kindness, recognizing that what seems small to us might be a big deal for someone else. So, it's important to be considerate of everyone's unique sensitivities and not cause unnecessary pain.
