    "A spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down." Sugar coating often makes people more likely to listen to what you are saying.

    I sugar coat NOTHING! (and I've been criticized for my tact) I don't think its a form of lying just a way of being P/C

    not as lying but just being more etiquette . Sometimes by sugar coating it it makes it easier to take.(the truth you speak about) example lets say you s/o just got hit by a car. if i told you flat out you might not be able to take it, but if i said your s/o was in in accident but she shes doing fine do you find any deceitfulness there..

    "Sugar coating" is lying and can be deceitful. Never the less "white lies" are also called "sugar coating" which intend not to hurt others. I personally can not do it, or I speak my mind out or keep quiet and leave. . Regards.

    Yes is do.. i think almost everything we hear is sugar-coated in one way, shape or form! Absolute truth is a very rare and dangerous thing - especially in the context of professional journalism

    The sugar coating just makes the truth easier to swallow.. as long as the truth is coming out whether its diluted a bit the point can still be reached.

    Depends on how much sugar coating and what you are sugar coating. No harm can come from a little creative frosting unless you are trying to feed someone sugar coated sh*t.

    Sugar coating/lies aren't necessarily "bad" if the intent behind the lie is noble. What useful purpose is obtained when a man answers truthfully when asked, "Does this dress make me look fat?"

    I may hold back, but I do not sugarcoat. if someone can't handle the truth I won't say anything until they ask. but if you do not like the answer you should avoid asking hte question.
