Well, for example, "You're a man - you wouldn't understand."
Or "You blacks are more musical than white people".
Or "It's immoral for you to be gay."
"Because you're a woman, you can't drive very well."
"You Jews ... " you get the idea.

The problem here is not offence
It's the sweeping sexist/racist/homophobic generalisation. And the fact that they're plain wrong.

What's the problem with them?
According to the OP, it's up to you whether or not they're offensive.

Exactly
Which is why the correct response to racism/sexism/homophobia/xenophobia etc is not "I'm offended" but "You are a moron and here's why..."

Lolwhites has it right
If someone says something you don't agree with then you don't go running to the police, you act like an adult and say "You're an idiot"
