Words have become toxic. When a person must learn a thesaurus of words just to convey how one feels simply because it might offend a particular segment of the population. Does this mean society has become too sensitive to offending other people\u2019s sensibilities?.\n\nOne can no longer classify a situation as retarded, lest the language offend those with mental illness. No longer can one say they feel they feel gay and spritely, lest they offend the LGBTQ community. It would seem that a lexicon of words is now required to function in society today.\n\nDoes this no longer mean that people are listening to each other less, or simply not caring about what the other person has to say?\n\nThis is our topic for this week\u2019s Blind Perspective. While it\u2019s important to learn a lexicon of language for English sake, should we learn that lexicon, because we don\u2019t have time or inclination to actually listen to each other?\n\nJoin our panel, on Friday nights at 8:00 pm (EST), 5:00 pm (PST) and 1:00 am (GMT), as they discuss topical news items of importance from a blind perspective.\n\nThe Blind Perspective is an interactive show, allowing for the participation of the audience.
