Political Correctness Gone MadFreddy Woo writes: "I once worked on an animation to help highlight the issues homeless people face in winter. The client was happy with the work, then a note came back that the ethnic mix of the characters were wrong. These were cartoon characters. They weren't meant to be ethnically anything, but we were forced to make one of them brown, at the cost of about 10k to the charity. This is how your donations are spent. Wisely as you can see."
How has PC affected you? (Please add your own tales - not five-year-old news stories cut-and-pasted from other websites)

FFS......you're right about this - {gayer here, for context} - what the fuck do I need a 'special course for gays' for? Preferring cock affects my intellectual capacities not one iota, so I'm perfectly capable of learning along with the others, thanks verr'mush. Also this casts a question on my/our strength of character, suggesting I'm/we're too limp-wristed to hold my/our own in a leadership role. Cheeky fuckers.
If I were offered this, I'd likely end up with a formal warning for verbal abuse.
Don't get me wrong here, I'm familiar with Stonewall, and they do some good work for gay rights, but this one is a turkey. And yeah, I'm with Yenkom too - that should make sure this bullshit gets ditched toot sweet.
Absolute bollocks.
