-content: 'I was reading a book (about interjections, oddly enough) yesterday which
|
|
|
|
- included the phrase "In these days of political correctness..." talking about no
|
|
|
|
- longer making jokes that denigrated people for their culture or for the colour of
|
|
|
|
- their skin. And I thought, "That''s not actually anything to do with ''political
|
|
|
|
- correctness''. That''s just treating other people with respect."

|
|

|
|
|
|
- Which made me oddly happy. I started imagining a world in which we replaced the
|
|
|
|
- phrase "politically correct" wherever we could with "treating other people with
|
|
|
|
- respect", and it made me smile.

|
- You should try it. It''s peculiarly enlightening.

|
|
|
|
- I know what you''re thinking now. You''re thinking "Oh my god, that''s treating
|
|
|
|
- other people with respect gone mad!"
