In recent years, people have become increasingly conscious of the ways in which our language gives the impression that we are referring only to men when it is more appropriate to refer to both men and women. Has political correctness gotten out of hand? Are we becoming too sensitive to gender issues (and other issues) in our public dialogue? Or are we not sensitive and mindful enough? Explain your answer thoroughly and avoid hasty responses. Whatever you use as the thesis to your reflection, support it completely and remember to be ethical throughout!
