Hot take: This is gonna sound conceited to introverts but “shutting the fuck up so others can talk and contribute” IS society forcing extroverts to do exactly what you said. When an extrovert isn’t talking they are probably deliberately holding back because it’s socially polite
this isn’t even about ‘letting others talk’. it’s just nice to have moments where folk can simply be in each other’s company and not be required to converse
