The greatest conversational challenges I encounter are not immediately due to sensitivity but indirectly so due to customs, assumptions, and culture. I find many people are deeply fearful of originality and criticality and group defiance when it comes to their operating habits, perceptions, and executing behaviors.
In short many people will take drastic steps to irrationally preserve their operating habits as cognitive decisions even in defiance of direct evidence and at risk of eminent failure. Conversations about this are supremely challenging.
In my experience the reason why this is so challenging is not due to sensitivity, though sensitivity is certainly present. Instead I find many people are challenged by objectivity as a deeply instilled personality trait. The degree of objectivity acceptance by person is variable and varies further in group dynamics. This is a measurable quality of some behavior analysis tests.
