Have you been offended by something you knew wasn't intentionally trying to offend you within the last year?


Within the last year!

Not your entire life! That would be too large of an area to measure and create inaccurate results due to everyone being different ages.

I'm talking about being offended by, comments, jokes, art, etc., things that weren't intentionally directed at you or a group you belong to with intention of offense.

Probably? I'm sure it's happened because it's possible for anybody to take offense over anything so it likely happens to everybody. Of course, Adjl would want to make a law against it.

Yes I suppose there are times where I'd feel hurt (less offended) because of carelessly thrown words/gestures by friends, colleagues or family. But I usually reign in those emotions when I realise that offense was not their intent. I do, though, point their tactless behaviour out in order to avoid these misunderstandings in the future.

No not really. If someone didn't mean it that way then i won't take it that way. I just like hearing what people have to say. Some times it isn't always nice but hey i know what they said.

I'm offended by the existence of SJW's and feminists all the time.
I'm a unicorn and everyone has to call me a unicorn and tell me what a lovely lovely horn I have or else you're a bigot.
well, not offended, but can get mildly triggered at certain topics since people don't know that part of me

No, I don't get offended by things unless they were intended to offend me. That seems stupid.

Yeah.

I watched the movie The Visit and it had a really fucked up portrayel of the elderly and people with mental health problems, which kinda pissed me off as someone that works with both.

bad bump, i'm offended
No, because I don't actively look for ways to get offended, unlike much of today's younger millennials.

Haha...this made me smile. Yes, to a certain extent today's young people are so tolerant on some things that they become so intolerant on other things. Quite the contradiction....

I get offended by people who don't have basic manners. I also get offended by bad drivers.
