Thick Skin

I made a statement the other day, "Men can't be offended" when a women wrote, "maybe you should try".  Hmmm?  I thought about it for a nano second then dismissed it after realizing I also had a "delete button".

What a glorious age we live in...

"Some will always be able to find offense.  If you are looking for discrimination, it’s out there.  If you want to be a victim, it won’t take long.  Other than going to your “safe zone” and pulling the covers over your head, there is no way to avoid it.  That’s why we need thick skin.  It would be a full time job denouncing all the offensive remarks and actions of others.  We don’t have time for that!  We’ve got lives to live, things to accomplish, and adventures waiting to happen.  This is the jungle – let the offensive remarks bounce right off and continue charging!!" ~ Scott Alexander
