Most of the time i find it pretty interesting, but it depends on how they challenge my views. If they say "that's stupid" then i would wonder how they could say it so carelessly. I don't really become defensive when it happens, maybe say "really? That's how i feel though, how do you feel?" But if they tell me nicely i would want to understand them, i find different views very interesting.

@anastasia200102: yes. I won't even discuss something with anyone who starts by calling others stupid or ignorant, although I may well be ignorant on certain topics, most people who use the word aren't saying you are ignorant of the facts in this case,,they are saying "you are ignorant"
