small blind defend?

never been a big fan of defending the small blind with junk, always feels like you're bleeding chips. i get there’s the argument for pot odds and maybe trying to hit something cheap, but i end up in weird spots post flop. people seem to say you gotta defend wider these days but i dunno, i just see myself stuck with second pair or some random draw and it gets expensive quick.

maybe i’m just too tight or missing value, but i’d rather wait for something better most times. not saying never, just not wide. up to you though, your call
