If political correctness would be limited by not saying swear words that would have been ok. The problem goes much deeper. PC makes us avoid thinking and doing certain things. It’s like we have to internally put on the breaks.

PC establishes a pattern of preferential treatment toward some fragments of the population and has no problem offending others. For example, God forbid we offend the feelings of religious people, but no one cares about offending the feelings of atheists or agnostics. “No, no” on offending women, but it’s ok to offend men. The list goes on and on… Not that I am advocating offending women, or minorities or anybody else for that matter, but I don’t like the double standards.
