Young Sheldon Hints TBBT’s Main Group Was Responsible For 1 Major Sheldon Character Flaw

Sheldon’s family differences in Young Sheldon have long been pinpointed as plot holes, but one specific Sheldon characteristic painting him in a bad light in The Big Bang Theory might be attributed to the company he keeps in the parent series. Throughout The Big Bang Theory’s twelve seasons, Sheldon’s social ineptitude showed his frankness often prevailing, without him realizing straight away that his comments could have embarrassed others or outright offended them. However, Sheldon’s female friends and acquaintances bore the brunt of his bluntness, as he regularly resorted to sexist stereotypes in his discussions with them or if he needed to figure out why they were expressing a certain emotion.
