just because someone is politically "incorrect" doesnt mean they are being rude. it just means that they arent bothering to sugar coat everything they say. i would prefer that people call it like it is. politically correctness is for minorities and lawyers. everyone else could care less.

beacuse every idiot feels they have a right to sue someone if done any other way then the politicaly correct way; and it doesnt help that there are people winning money from this ignorance and other people are following in their lead.

Trying not to insult the masses. Being politically correct are buzz words that will change constantly through time and cannot be stopped. I am poor or am I financially challenged

I'm wondering too.
I guess because the world has gotten "smaller", it's easier for people to voice out their feelings as well as hear other people's opinions. Because we have knowledge on how people, say a certain group of people, would like to be treated, we as intelligent creatures, supposedly, should give a certain amount of respect to their wishes. In return, other people who have knowledge of how we would like to be treated should have a certain amount of respect to respond accordingly to our wishes.
And because the whole world is becoming a melting pot in itself, we are more exposed to being around other people with other cultures, beliefs and practices. To keep the peace, as they say, we try our best not to offend each other. Otherwise, the streets would be covered in blood and paved with bones.

Because there are people out there who complain and complain that the words others are using are offensive. So we because of these crybabies, we have to candy coat our language, created euphimisms, etc. Its quite stupid.
I recommend watching a George Carlin show or reading one of his books. He's a comedian that really gets into politically correctness, and its one of his favorite topics to make fun of. He's very funny. Check him out!
