unbending
In a physical sense, this word describes materials that are rigid or inflexible. It is often used in technical or descriptive contexts to emphasize a total lack of elasticity or pliability.
When applied to people or personalities, it carries a strong connotation of rigidity. While "firm" can be a positive trait implying strength and stability, "unbending" often suggests an unreasonable or harsh refusal to compromise. It implies a lack of empathy or a stubborn adherence to rules regardless of the circumstances.
In social and professional registers, calling someone "unbending" is typically a criticism. It suggests that the person is difficult to work with because they are unwilling to adapt their views or negotiate, making it a more severe term than "stubborn."
