POLITICALLY INCORRECT: THAT'S CORRECT

For the last ten years, there has been a revolution among society, based on making harsh and acid judgement of people's behaviors, preferences and opinions, which was started maybe by "baby boomers" and was quickly followed by herds of easily manipulated people who thought it was their duty to decide and make an undisputed call on what is "Politically Correct".

Due to this  absurd and very easy to follow "group policy" (criticize everyone without contempt because they don't fit into the politically correct suit) it is now normal that the vast majority of people will choose words very carefully so they won't "offend" anyone, try to stay away from sensitive issues and will prefer to stay shut rather than speak up and say what's on their minds.

So, it is now frowned upon when someone says  things just the way they are, taking away all the normal B.S. and saving people lots of valuable time by going right to the point, even if it hurts. God forbid you are a straight talking, direct and blunt individual when stating a point of view, because you may  be labeled a "rebel", a relentless ignorant, even an anarchist in the worst case scenario.

But you know what?..Aren´t we all tired of hipocrisy?..aren't we exhausted of sugar coating every piece of mind you want to say to some of those annoying creatures of God you come across with every day?..wouldn't that be great to just say what you think and let the world find a way to deal with it?.

So anytime I find someone who is ready and fearless of saying things like they are, happy for developing a thick skin and not easily shocked or shattered by other people's verbal artillery, I smile and try to make friends with this kind of people. Because they keep me OUT OF THE DARK.

Because not everything is so serious, because sometimes it is Ok to take a joke and laugh at ourselves.Because if by any chance we may belong to some minority, it doesn't mean we have to be treated with extreme care or as a feather. We have to roll with the punches and have some fun, make the best out of everything. Have you seen kids in action,at school or in the park?..Boy!, those kids can be mean and cruel and blunt with each other. And yet, they laugh about it and GO ON WITH THEIR LIVES.

I prefer bluntness to hipocresy. I prefer brutal truth than playing stupid time games to get to the truth. I prefer to treat everybody equally and make no distinction of race, sexual orientation, religion or prefered football team. You know why? because I dont give a damn about their preferences, as long as they don't step directly into my interests. For example, Tiger Woods had to apologize to the whole wide world because of his behavior out of the golf course. WHY??...He shouldn't have done that. At least, I don't accept his apology because I don't need it nor deserve it!!. It is NOT MY GOD DAMN BUSINESS!. As long as he is not doing our wives or girlfriends, let him do whatever the heck he wants. His wife will charge him for it , big time!. And basically, for all I care, I just wish to see him playing again, because that's how I met the guy, because I saw him playing golf on TV, I didn't meet him at any stripjoint or any restaurant filled with fine waitresses. I just saw him play and that's all I need to see from him.

And finally,  I find it childish and very stupid to be offended all the time because somebody said this or that, or because my teacher looked at me funny, or my friend's colleague said a word that is "forbidden" (What about this crazyness with forbidden words?, what the fuck is that?...Can someone forbid others to speak their minds?...Not in our free America, maybe in some crazy regimen countries, but not here).We have to live and let live at some point in time, you know?..:and we have to be strong and define some character. Instead of  whining about everything all the time, why don´t we shake up and go out in the world and behave like a grown up with a pair? (This applies to both male or female, you know it does and you know this is only a figure of speech, so before you sue me...breath deeply...one more time... it passed already..see?...easy, right?). 

Now, I will go out, live more and bitch less about the world. I will say it like it is and very probably I won't apologize for that.  Let's not move from politically correct to "Sissyland Correct". There is a fine fine line, and we should erase it as quick as possible. For the sake of a better, simpler, true and plain, happy world.

TOOOOOTALLY AGREE! This is one of the things that peeves me the most about my beloved island. You cannot say anything these days without offending someone!... Free speech anyone?!

Relax, say what you think (without being intentionally hurtful) and get on with it. Non-pc can be hilarious o and watch Avenue Q and laugh your arse off!

People around the world (or around me)need to get used to use a clear and assertive speech, in order to face the true and enjoy reality...
Free your mind and your speech!!!

Jen,
Thanks for your comments. I really laughed when you mentioned Avenue Q (One of my favorite plays, saw it on Broadway a few years ago and it was an amazing experience). I think that some of the songs from the play really hit the jackpot (such as "The internet is for Porn" ,"Everyone is a little bit racist","Shadenfraude", etc). Definately, a little bit of Non PC can make our lives little bit lighter!
Best regards
