I hope you now are more aware of why people value "political correctness." It's about respecting people who have had words lobbed at them in hate wanting others to be aware of why their words matter.
I had never heard it put this way....why "f-g" bothers people.
Powerful when thought about like this...
Certainly makes me reflect on my own use of words, and I'm not Mr PC.

Not really. It's about controlling other people and what they can or can't think or say because someone's feelings somewhere might be upset. 8 billion people around, everything offends someone somewhere.

It’s a challenging situation since the word isn’t an inherent slur and still has different uses. And no one group of ppl will all feel the same about a word that affects them. Not to mention the selective outrage.

Remember the F word is a food in the U.K. So it’s actually legit over here

I don't think it's a food but sometimes used as alternative for cigarette? Although still has negative connotations around it.

Honestly, it is a food. Normally from around the Black Country in the West Midlands

No need to. Ellen was right. Forgive and move on

The greater LGBTQ community says otherwise, and we're not going to have our legitimate feelings erased or dismissed.

Would this apply to Antifa’s use of “fascist” on everyone who supports Trump, and with the same violent outcomes? When are words going to be seen as words and not actions? Who gets to decide which words are allowed?
