People today are so easily offended.
Its something we see on a daily basis on here from some, people constantly state that they are offended by this or that or this post or that post and it’s something we see on a daily basis in the real world and on the news. Someone always seems to take offense to minor issues and free speech and has to tell the world and tell us all that they are "OFFENDED" or take "OFFENSE" at this or that
One of the lessons that most of us learned at an early age was, "sticks and stones may break my bones but words will never hurt me." When I grew up it wasn't called "bullying," it was called teasing and having a bit of fun at each other’s expense and we grew thick skin from it and got on with life. NOW so many people are offended by so many minor things.
Maybe today's world and the soft***** (soft roosters) need to grow a little thick skin and stop being so easily offended by everything.
So thoughts, are some to easily offended and take offense to everything.
Hoping this will be my final post on this thread, I must say - we seem to be degenerating into a bunch of nitpicking trolls, just taking the opportunity to snipe at each other.
Where's the discourse gone from the original topic, of the easily offended?
I've seen copious amounts of banter - but as yet, no one - not one, has come up with suggestions of exactly where this line between teasing and offensive behaviour should be drawn!
I think this expresses my concerns better than I ever could...
Feel free to harangue me at will!
