[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People are very sensitive to word choices and what they mean/imply. If you are describing a woman - say "woman," if you "have a wife" say you are "married" or have a "partner."

Yes, but why are things different now? What caused the shift? Do you think it’s a good or bad thing? I feel like in 10-20 years the language that 25 year olds feel is acceptable now will be considered offensive in some other way.[/quote]

It's a very good thing. People are more enlightened about language now. They want to be more inclusive and avoid microaggressions. They're not the issue. You are, old timer. [/quote]

Don't be so smug, less than 1% of the world's population thinks like you. Leave your bubble of coastal urban elite woke snobbery and realize that most people think your world view is something that should only be ridiculed. Nobody who uses the term microaggression in a non ironic context should ever be taken seriously as a critical thinker.[/quote]
Nobody who uses the term “woke” ( esp a la Fox News/insult) should be critiquing people’s thinking skills. [/quote]
