How am I atypically sensitive if I don’t want to have anything to do with a person who thinks my beliefs and choices are a failure? That sounds like a recipe for disaster. Instead, I choose to be friends with people who accept me as I am.
ETA: Though I wouldn’t want them to not express it, the opposite.
- Semaphor 4y agoI wish the people who are apparently extremely easily offended by this would tell me what’s so bad about my opinion.
- otterley 4y agoBecause most people aren’t so offended by it that they choose to avoid people with such opinions altogether (I’m not talking about not wanting to be friends, but rather, being offended). Such sensitivity is atypical by definition. It’s not intended to be an insult, merely an observation.
- Godel_unicode 4y agoHow can you possibly know that? The hubris of thinking that because you haven’t seen it it’s uncommon on it’s face is truly staggering.
- otterley 4y agoI have seen it. It's still uncommon. Besides, how does it possibly help you (or anyone else) to get emotionally wounded by some random stranger on the Internet's insensitive comments? Most people older than their 20s have figured this out already and are living more productive lives.
- Semaphor 4y agoI mean, as long as you also don’t mind me finding it a failure to have children… > I’m not talking about not wanting to be friends, but rather, being offended That’s not what you said, you said alienate.
