I will, inevitably, post something that offends you at some point - and probably I will know that you will disagree (hmm, is 'disagreeing' the same as 'angering and insulting' people? I disagree with you regularly, but it was only when you appeared to suggest that I was racist that I felt it was specifically distressing). However, I offer an apology in advance for that..
What I would ask, however, is that if you want to challenge my point, please do it with sensitivity. I'm almost CERTAIN that I've said something with which you profoundly disagree already (and I'll probably go on doing that on a regular basis) and you have already been kind enough not to be angry and insulting in my direction. Which I appreciate more than I can say.
But also, I actually *do* want to know (usually) when I'm being accidentally offensive, so would appreciate a gentle comment telling me why. But - I'm human, and weak, and the emphasis therefore is on GENTLE :)
