tifino Posted January 27, 2019 Share Posted January 27, 2019 no different to how someone's ears become selectively over sensitive... like: - hearing something said, that will then trigger an auto-defence response, to protect a guilty conscience. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HAKAPALITA Posted February 3, 2019 Share Posted February 3, 2019 All i can add is that my watering hole is 65% Gay. They are retired folk, mix with all and dont post here, they are not fond off the posts here from what they say or the younger yappy ones, So for me they are just the same as me, old n grumpy.!.

pedro01 Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 The vocal minority are too sensitive. That's all. I don't think I've met an overly sensitive gay person in my entire life. I think they mostly exist on the internet. Except perhaps a friend called Gerry in London - who did 18 months for GBH when 3 guys shouted abuse at him & his boyfriend from across the road and he went & beat them up. Wouldn't call him sensitive to his face though.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coremouse Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 Major symptom of over sensitive: hears some people express themselves over real concern, imediately label them as "sensitive" Political correct, SJW, these phrases are becoming excuse for everything; a movie's bad, must been caused by political correctness! got into an accident, must because some SJWs!

ThailandRyan Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 Sensitivity in people equates to non tolerance. Add in the Woke movement, and now Dr. Seuss books have been found to be insensitive and 6 books have been pulled. Then you have the issue with Mr. and Mrs. Potato head toys. You just can not make this stuff up. https://pjmedia.com/news-and-politics/tyler-o-neil/2021/03/02/digital-book-burning-comes-for-dr-seuss-on-his-birthday-n1429434 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Scott Posted March 4, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted March 4, 2021 I don't believe that sensitivity equates to non tolerance. Most of us have grown up with the idea that to be accepted, one size fits all. We grew up watching movies in which the Native Americans were portrayed as savages, the Calvary as heroes. We were taught it in school. We were taught that military encounters we lost were massacres and massacres we committed were battles. We are all aware of the struggles of Black people. We were taught that homosexuality was a sin, it was illegal and it was a mental disorder. People were imprisoned for it. People were locked up in mental institutions for it. Today, at least in the US, the flavor of the month for haters is Asians, for 'causing' Covid and Transgender. The decisions made to withdraw Dr. Seuss books was a marketing decision. They weren't outlawed; they weren't banned. The same with the Mr. Potato Head. I can't think of anything more gender neutral than a potato. Hopefully, we will at least make a stab at not indoctrinating young people with hate. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had teachers who were gay, but one's sexual orientation and practices (where gay or straight), were a private matter. No-one cared what your sexual orientation was, and they certainly didn't discriminate against you if you were gay. At my school, the colour of your skin didn't matter either. Perhaps my school was very progressive and maybe things were different in other countries. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Society "taught" discrimination through culture, legislation had people imprisoned for the "abdominal crime of buggery" imprisonment up 14 years in UK (until changes sexual offences act 1967) and its dominions and colonies until law reform, then societal change came slowly Many schools also allowed bullying of diverse persons because of race, colour, creed, sexual orientation.
