The concept of “offended” is all the rage. I don’t get it. “Offended” is an attitude, not an emotion. Anger is an emotion. So is fear, joy, hurt, etc. Not “offended”. But if we are going to live in this induced-psychosis culture where morons who don’t know what words mean constantly get “offended”, let’s make it interesting. I want the code duello back. There are practical difficulties, (women can’t do swords against men, it’s very class-based, etc.) but I feel that, in the fullness of time, taking things into account and so on, we can move forward, vibrantly, in a productive way.
At least we could get some good scenes out of it.
