Warning- Don't read if you are offended easily?

Even if I ignore the offense part, it still wasn't funny.

If you can do it discreetly, sure why not?  Just don't dig in so conspicuously that someone would be offended by it.

Well, usually it depends how you use it in a sentence.  I comeplete agree that you could easily get offended if someone calls you a jew, putting the emphasis on the word "jew".  People make it sount like an insult don't they?  But it probably wasn't their fault;  they couldn't have known that it would hurt you.  You just have to give people a second chance, though give them a warning.

If you are offensive with language or other X rated things you can get reported by any user. Yahoo could expel you. I suspect you would get the benefit of a warning.

Don't let the crass minority put you off :)

Okay that was rude. But censorship sucks too, and where would they draw the line? I don't think they have time to check out every single thing we write on here anyway. You have to be pretty tough to play here sometimes. Just ignore rude people and be happy about the nice respectful ones who don't act that way. Or if someone says something really bad report them.

I try to, in that I figure that it takes minimal effort on my part and too many poeple are overly sensitlve and quick to take offence now adays. I just couldn't be bothered with dealing with them.\n\n   I could care a less if anybody else does, and make no comments or harbour any bad feelings if someone says something non politically correct.

I guess it is quite fine. I mean if someone asked my religion I would not be offended. However, it is important not to insult people because of their religion or not having a religion.

Sure, why not?  It's entertaining, and often (but not always) less offensive than a lot of what's out there.  As long as you're feeding your mind, what's the harm?

well it seems to me that some people are offended easier than others. I'm welsh , people call me Taffy, i don't get offended!

I think that you are reading to much into it.  Did it make you uncomfortable?  Take it as a compliment.

Yeah!  Type the word with spaces between every letter or commas, anything so it can be seen.  Often Yahoo will do this if it deems the word to be offensive or explicit in nature.  I dunno why because most of us are adult enough not to be offended by words such as m a s t u r b a t i o n.  If it is the word I'm thinking of then get back to us and we can be sure that you're getting the right advice!  Ok, sure enough u were on about what I thought.  I personally don't think that it does any harm.  I have been doing it since I was 14 and I am now 42 and it hasn't done me any harm.  If it's something u like to do and it makes u happy then as long as u aren't developing any bad habits then I say carry on.  And don't worry either if u have one or two little quirks in the way u do it, like fantasies or little kinky things because that's healthy too, as long as it doesn't involve or affect anyone else then I say good luck 2 ya.  Have fun!!

Oh offense is taken, although you can mean to trigger a person so that they'll take it as offensive and be offended.  So take as offense offered and taken.  ;)  After all, it's up to you how you take things.  Some people aren't offended by some things certain other people are, so...  that's that.  :)

Understand that some of these answers may be offensive to some people.\n\nI'll go with answer D.

You were in the pub, as you said. Doesn't matter what you were saying, somebody's bound to get offended by it sooner or later. He went over there just for that reason. To butt into the conversation and start something with you. It had nothing to do with the subject of the conversation. Trust me.

It's a problem for those who umm...don't like it? You don't have to be a prude to think that cursing and vulgar actions are inappropriate. For me it just depends on my mood.

Yes I am careful not to offend people.
