[quote=Anonymous]Not everyone I meet is like this but maybe 1 out of 3. Usually they’re on the younger side, under 40. Both online and offline. They twist your words to mean something completely different. Example, using the word “female” to describe a woman which I occasionally do, and have heard countless other women use it in the exact same context. I sometimes get called out for it by these easy to offend types. Another person got offended when I said I have a wife, key word *have*, implying that I somehow meant that my wife was my literal property simply because I used a possessive verb. In another example, I was giving advice to a younger family member who is having financial troubles and is starting out in the art field, I mentioned that art is known to not pay too well in general, they told me this comment was offensive as if I was diminishing the importance of the art profession.
