  • Why are people so sensitive? Has it altered social behavior?

    How is it that people have become so overly sensitive and get their "feelings hurt" so easily? And if it is somebody you don't know, why would you care what they say, do or think?

    Really, if I were to say something you didn't like or agree with, why would you care?

    People have become so hyper-sensitive about every issue imaginable that a person can not voice an opinion or thought without worrying about hurting somebody's frail feelings.

    And if I don't try hard enough to NOT to hurt your feelings, I am considered angry and mean.

    (some little Q&A person emailed me because I hurt his feelings)
