      What is "political correctness"? I know most Americans say they don't like it. But I'm not sure all of them could clearly articulate what exactly it is that they don't like. And I suspect many who say they don't like political correctness have different definitions.

      I'd say using less apt or less expedient language in order to avoid being offensive or perceived as insensitive. Sometimes that tradeoff is worth it; often it's not.

      I think this is my favorite definition so far.

          I would disagree with saying it’s often not worth the trade off. It depends on who is listening and what you are saying. The whole point is to listen when someone says they are offended and change your perspective and language if necessary.

          It depends on “often.” I would’ve said “sometimes,” which I think puts me closer to your position.

          I think if you know that your word choice will genuinely offend someone, it's almost always worth adjusting your language to avoid that. But it seems like that's often not the case.

          Example: I would always call someone the pronouns they prefer. Not calling someone what they want to be called isn't just un-PC, it's being an asshole. However, I think asking everyone to introduce themselves with their pronouns sacrifices too much time to be worth it.
