The old word for politically correct is polite. Politically incorrect is simply impolite. I believe concerns about being impolite are valid, and I also think that being oversensitive about rude words or rudeness in general is wrong too. Rudeness, however, is coarsening. As a result, people get calloused to hurtful behavior. Autocrats become presidents. Standards get cheapened.
