Too much focus on PC

[Loves Disney]

I think people are getting way too hung up with political correctness.

It's called a Christmas tree...deal with it. It's the Christmas season so the name fits.

They are freshmen. Always have been so why stop now?

It's spelled "women" not "womyn".

Girls and boys do you get offended for being called freshmen and girls, do you get offended for being called women?

Those who are of different religions, do you get offended that at the Christmas season, we call them Christmas trees?

I think this world is focusing too much on PC and needs to chill a little. What do you guys think?

 

[BabyPiglet]

I'm right there with you. I'm tired of being hesitant of what to post because it might not be politically correct and I'll be bashed for it.

I'm tired of it.

I don't care about being PC. I refuse to call it a "Holiday Tree."

I don't care about being PC. I refuse to call it a "Holiday Tree."

Me too...It just isn't lol.

 

[Captain Brain]

Me too...It just isn't lol.

Seriously: Which other holidays have a tree? Why not just leave things the way they were. If it's not broke, don't fix it.

 

[BabyPiglet]

I never bought into all of that. I still call is Chrsitmas, and a Christmas Tree, and they're Christmas Presents.

I am a woman

I am a freshman


The only think offensive is political correctness.

 

[HSMndLKfan92]

Freshmen, women. That doesn't offend me at all.

I love running through Wal-Mart and saying, "Mommy! Look at all the CHRISTMAS trees!" and "I love this CHRISTMAS music!!"

 

[SplshMtnLvr28]

Lmao, if freshman offends you, call yourself frosh or something.

 

[BabyPiglet]

LOL, I am such a child around Christmas time.

I blast CHRISTMAS music from my ipod.

The also changed selectmen to selectpeople.

Chairman to chairperson..

 

[BabyPiglet]

PPhhhsssttt.

It makes me so frusterated, who really cares.

Oh Political Correctness bothers me, I will never get it right, I say something and I know it is probably not correct, but it is what it is, to me it will always be a CHRISTMAS TREE, if the Jewish want a tree they can call it a Hanakuh tree, doesn't bother me, I don;'t care if people call me white, and not American, so why should it be wrong to call someone black instead of African American, it just all is getting way to complicated for me, and at the way america is today, its wayyy to complicated for half our country.

Sorry if that was a lil harsh, but its how I feel, and I don't know if someone might find any of that offensive, if you do, sorry!

 

[BabyPiglet]

I feel that way Lauren.

Also, midget, little person, I don't know what to call them.

Me too. I just say dwarf...

 

[Columba]

Little people is the politically correct way.

That's the one of the pc terms I'm sure to use, because I have trouble telling if they're a dwarf or a midget.

 

[BabyPiglet]

Dwarf, elf.

I dunno. I'm always hesitant cause I don't wanna get chewed out.

 

[Sparx]

what about a cross dresser?

Him/her?

what do you call them?

 

[BabyPiglet]

Interesting. I call them whatever pops up in my head first.
