- kelseyfrog 5y agoThere's definitely been a shift over the years, so I can see why someone would attribute it to sensitivity. However, actions that were done in the past that caused people to live in silent misery when done now are openly confronted. What appears as an increase in sensitivity is simply a perfectly natural response to abject behavior. People weren't less sensitive in the past, there were social mechanisms which curtailed these natural responses. The reinforcement of the idea that "people are too sensitive now days get offended by anything" is an excellent example of such a mechanism.
