Opinion: People cannot grow thicker skin.

I'm of the opinion you're either born with it and when you become an adult you either get offended by certain shit or you don't.

Like someone makes a 9/11 joke, you're either laughing or you're not, and I don't really think it's possible to change that.

Maybe thats just a millenial way of thinking though.

9/11 jokes are just plane funny.


Are you saying that there's a thick-skin gene? Have scientists identified which chromosome its in? Is it autosomal recessive or dominant? Are blacks more thick-skinned for leathery reasons?

Nah I mean mainly when they become adults if they're already thin-skinned they can't really change that.

I don't think you can just DECIDE not to be offended by something.

You can tell people you aren't offended but you probably are deep down, you just don't say anything cause depending on what was said there's no point in turning it into a big thing.

Normally you'd be right but even if this was about me it wouldn't make the statement any less true.

If you disagree feel free to give some examples.

"It's now very common to hear people say, 'I'm rather offended by that.' As if that gives them certain rights. It's actually nothing more... than a whine. 'I find that offensive.' It has no meaning; it has no purpose; it has no reason to be respected as a phrase. 'I am offended by that.' Well, so f**king what."

Opinion: People cannot grow thicker skin.

Some people's skins are naturally thicker than others, just like some people are (physically) stronger than others. You can still pump iron.

Yes, you can decide.

As a kid I got teased & bullied at school because of my ethnic background.

Then at a certain age I realised the taunts were just sounds people were making to elicit a response from me.

I no longer was offended. In fact if the racial joke was funny enough I'd laugh at my own expense. I recognised the humour & not the intended insult.
