Are you easily offended?

Sometimes it amazes me how easily offended people get over the tiniest things...

I have a friend who is always caught up in drama about something someone said that she felt was a dig at her

I do not get offended easily...I learned to laugh at myself (and others!!) a long time ago...

No. It takes A LOT to offend me. Im constantly amazed at how quickly people get offended. People need a thicker skin.

I am not one to be easily offended. If I did then I would drive myself crazy.

Re: Are you easily offended?

I'm not easily offended. And with my mouth and my smartazz remarks, I'm sure I've offended many, though it wasn't my intention.

I think sometimes people take things that others say as being malicious, when most times its all in good fun. I don't think most people intend to say or do things to hurt you. I might be naive, but I think generally most people are good. But some people think that they are targeting, when they aren't necessarily targeted.

I am not easily offended at all, I have a thick skin and I quite enjoy a good offensive comment (if you will)

For me it depends, on what is said and who said it.

Re: Are you easily offended?

I think I'm more easily offended on behalf of others than I am if someone were to say something about me.

Does that make sense?

I always feel the need to stick up for the underdog.

I think it also depends on the source though. But, if we're talking about on a message board (not necessarily IRL), it takes alot more

Re: Are you easily offended?

Depends who it comes from.

Generally, for people who don't really know me, no. I have a very thick skin on the outside.

I get over it fast.

From people who know me, yes, I get offended.

Re: Are you easily offended?

Whilst I am not easily offended, I don't like to offend people and if I offend people, I do feel quite badly. But that balances with me not giving a flying fig about what other people think, I just try to find a happy medium (which is mostly laughing at myself)

omg me too

I would cry at the drop of a hat when I was younger

As I got older I learned not to let things bother me...not to take things so seriously

I am very very laid back now and let things just roll right off Chat Icon

Re: Are you easily offended?

i don't think i am, but it really depends on what the comment is - there are some things i am more sensitive about. it would also have to be directed at me - i don't get offended at stuff said on the radio or on TV, for example, unless they used my name Chat Icon

In general, I don't get offended, but it all depends on the subject, the person offending, and the tone of the statement.
