Re: Are you easily offended?
I try not to be easily offended. But it depends on who it's coming from and their intentions.
I can take a joke poking fun quite easily, but there is a threshold where poking fun becomes more along the lines of malicious and hurtful.

Re: Are you easily offended?
No. I have to have a personal connection to really be offended by something someone says.

Re: Are you easily offended?
Not easily offended. In order for me to be offended I have to give someone a lot of power. If I am offended by something someone says I feel like I am telling them that their opinion means more to me than my own opinion.
I might be injured by a cutting and personal remark - but not offended.

Re: Are you easily offended?
It depends there are a lot of things that don't offend me easily but there are a few that do i.e. racism, and gender bias.

Re: Are you easily offended?
To me, I think it comes with maturity. When you are young and emotionally immature, you are more easily offended. As you get older, you learn to let the little things go. If you are older and still are easily offended, well, put on your big girl panties and saddle up the table. Otherwise, keep away from me.

Re: Are you easily offended?
Not usually but it depends on the person saying it. If I am not a fan of a person, anything they say offends me where someone I like, the same statement wouldnt even bother me at all.

I am not easily offended. That word is so overused that it is almost meaningless.

I don't see how one has to do with the other. You could be a very mature person, who feels deeply.
As for the question at hand... Do I offended easily? No.
I can be hurt by a personal attack or dig but I'm not offended. I'm hurt. To me there's a difference.

Re: Are you easily offended?
Yes, I'm sensitive and tend to be easily offended about certain things. It also depends on who it is coming from and what it's about.

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

Re: Are you easily offended?
Growing up with a verbally abusive mother (and I don't use that term loosely) if I didn't have a thick skin, I would never have survived.
that being said, I do have a few achilles tendons in my life.
My weight is one. Even when I'm thin, one comment about my weight does irrational things to me.
Negative comments on what I should be doing with my child is another.
Anything else is fair game, so bring it....
