    Default Political correctness.

    Do you think its a good thing or not.
    I personally think its the worst thing that ever happened to this country, because i find that whatever one says now somebody will be offended where no offence was meant in the first place, and look at some of the rediculous phrases that sprung up when it was invented.

    Someone may say that someone is short, and the pc brigade must say they are "vertically challenged"
    and someone who is bald can only be described as "follically challenged" so it just shows that some folk have nothing better to do than decide how we are supposed to speak and just screw our lives up even more than they already are so its a complete waste of time imo, but some of you may feel differently.

    Political correctness is for politicians Micky, no one's telling you what you can and can't say. If anyone tries to, ignore them. It's bollocks.

    Let them do what they want, they can't make anyone else do it. If they want to behave like knobs leave them to it, the whole concept is geared around politics anyone else being PC is just a knob who doesn't understand that.

    Well, it was the Americans who invented both those phrases.
