just thought is worth a comment: "political correctness" doesn't exist,
except in the minds of those who want to dismiss pressure to stop
treating the world as if it exists in convenient, predetermined categories
that allow us to easily dismiss the rights of others. "political
correctness" was invented by those who refuse to open themselves to
change.
