Everywhere else, yes I tend to agree with you, if someone picks apart my language for hints of political incorrectness, I see it as another form of prejudice, or as a shallow identity they've decided to adopt for a time, and it does offend me. Sometimes though, I think people write genuine feelings off as rabid political correctness and I don't think there is any more substance to the thought put into that reaction than there is to superficial correctness.
GabbixThank you once again for your kindness and support. The above comment did lead me to feel hurt but I chose not to respond to it at the time.
