[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wow, talk about an overreaction. That’s not a micro aggression but I guess people want to be offended about something. I think you just need to slow way down. Every time you send out an email double check the name.[/quote]

+1. If someone told me that sending an email to the wrong person was a micro-aggression, I’d quietly take note that they were insane and limit future contact. [/quote]

+2. Two members on my team are both gay, with several other shared characteristics of being men, middle aged, same role, some geolocation. If I mixed up their names or emails does that make me a biased homophobe?

Please, enlighten me. [/quote]

It sounds like you're just trying to be edgy here. I hope you don't discount the well-documented concept that people struggle with cross-race identification. Look up the cross-race effect.[/quote]

You can call me edgy and hysterical all you want. You’re still not able to address the very real point that you can’t definitively diagnose whether a person has committed a micro aggression or not in these scenarios. There are too many characteristics that are shared across us that it could be one, two, or none of them that the OP is mixing up. Also, being in a hurry while also ADHD. [/quote]
