Are we all too politically correct here?

I'm just wondering cos I heard this somewhere recently.

Might have been someone a little dissaffected who said it though.

I personally think that people are a little too quick to label label things as "politically correct". It is an intellectually lazy term imho.

It isnt meant to start a flame war though. biggrin

It's more about the "term" really than whether this site is.

I'm just raising the question. I personally dont think it is as i think the term is a lazy one used by people whom are caugght out.

I don't believe one can ever be to politically correct. The truth is not sacrificed. In a world as vast and different as this we have to be to get along don't you think?

So, for myself I choose to remain so and think I am. I also choose to hang out with many who are as well as many who are not. I won't be told whom I can associate with and or how I am to judge them. I insist on being judged for who I am and my personal actions. It is not my place to police others ways of handling themselves nor tell them how to behave.



Live and let live say I!

If doing the right thing is being politically correct then yes.

So, for myself I choose to remain so and think I am. I also choose to hang out with many who are as well as many who are not. I won't be told whom I can associate with and or how I am to judge them. I insist on being judged for who I am and my personal actions. It is not my place to police others ways of handling themselves nor tell them how to behave.


You may not police other peoples actions but dont you think that you can influence them (especially friends) by expressing your opinion, especially if it is the correct and decent one? (hard to always know i admit).

You must speak your truth yes. Influence ...Yes. I personally am known to speak my mind. Not in a hidden way either. I will disagree with anyone short of God himself (I have it that he is smarter then me.) I also realize that some thrive on controversial behavior. So in long, lol I do tell them what I think of their behavior but accept that it is their choice. I just don't systematically shun people for different life choices then my own. I may choose not to hang out on certain threads or read certain authors. IMHO several spend far to much negative energy disdaining others. Get over it! Let it go move on.

lol However, I am not telling anyone what to get their thrills from.
