Hmmm, am I understanding you correctly? Are you saying that if I use the word "shit" in this forum, I am then required to reject the preferences of many adults (who don't want words like "shit" used in the presence of children)?
I don't think I can, at once, fulfill the requirement of rejecting preferences with which I agree.
And, I guess I don't know who is doing the requiring in that instance. (Required by whom?)
