In casual conversation, people experience little psychological discomfort in
admitting that they have some particular character flaw if and only if they
consider trivial the flaw to which they admit. Therefore, if in casual conversation
an individual readily admits that he or she has some particular character
flaw, the individual must not consider that flaw to be serious.
Which one of the following is an assumption necessary to the argument?
(A) Most character flaws are considered trivial by those who have them.
(B) People admit to having only those character flaws that most other
people consider trivial.
(C) In casual conversation, people admit to having character flaws only
when they must.
(D) In casual conversation, people most readily admit to having a character
flaw only when that admission causes them little psychological
discomfort.
(E) In casual conversation, people do not speak of things that would give
others an unfavorable impression of their character.
