Quote:political correctness

(also political correctitude)
Definition of political correctness in English:
noun
[MASS NOUN]
The avoidance of forms of expression or action that are perceived to exclude, marginalize, or insultgroups of people who are socially disadvantaged or discriminated against:women like him for his civil rights stand and political correctness

It is politically correct to not call black people "niggers" and all women "bitches."  Do any of you really object to that, or are you unclear on the meaning?

"A wise man ... proportions his belief to the evidence."
