I am not sure what you're saying. Of course you shouldn't hold your opinions infallible, but >I would mention besides that, while there are often a few people very loud about their disagreement, there is no reason to think that there aren't more people made uncomfortable by an assumption I made that I didn't even realise I was making, people who don't feel safe confronting me about it. I feel like, if you're making assumptions you don't realize you are making, the more reason you have to express your opinion so someone can bring it up. >but I'd rather make that decision consciously than bumble into offending someone out of ignorance. I'm not sure it's worth caring about people's feeling so much as to silence your opinions. This neither benefits you nor society, and only serve to appease people that cannot handle others having disagreeing opinions. The whole purpose of public discourse if to refine opinions.
