What's something you used to do/see/say but don't anymore because you don't feel it's right? - eviltoast

Me personally? I’ve become much less tolerant of sexist humor. Back in the day, cracking a joke at women’s expense was pretty common when I was a teen. As I’ve matured and become aware to the horrific extent of toxicity and bigotry pervading all tiers of our individualistic society, I’ve come to see how exclusionarly and objectifying that sort of ‘humor’ really is, and I regret it deeply.

        This illustrates really well why word filters are a terrible idea; they have no regard for the conversational context.

        Oooooooooooh shit that makes sense now hahahahahaha.

        I didn’t even know there was a word filter!
