Sensitivity and Respect

    Sensitivity in language towards other people has never been much of an issue for me. My parents always taught me to treat everyone equally and I haven't a single racist, sexist, etc...bone in my body. I appreciate that people go to such great lengths to make everyone feel equal and I know that it can be a challenge and inconvenience. But I do feel that it is an important aspect of writing. A silly story is not as important as someone's feelings or beliefs being respected. I love different cultures and will continue to respectfully and correctly celebrate their differences.
