FH you seem like a decent person, and I didn't really have a problem with the gist of your original comments (appropriate clothing in the workplace etc), but some of the wording *could have* offended a few different sectors of humanity, is all....
The Guardian-hating poster a few posts up tho'. Yes, we could all bang on about what a pain it is to patrol ourselves, our language, our thoughts - 'oh the PC madness of it all!!' etc. etc.
Or we could congratulate ourselves on the giant strides we've made in the last few decades in some (not all) areas of our human evolution, which have made it somewhat easier for people to exist who might previously have been marginalised, persecuted, exploited, abused, or not viewed as 'normal', 'equal', or as deserving agency in their own lives, in previous eras.
I say yay to that, personally.
And I don't even read a newspaper, so there!
