Of course it has it's reason and purpose.... What a silly thing to say that it doesn't. It indicates that someone is not comfortable something, just like pain indicates that something isn't comfortable. If I'm at the dentist or hairdresser and I say "ow!", that has a meaning! If it wasn't for the "ow!", the hairdresser or dentist might continue on doing what you're not comfortable with. Same goes for "I'm offended". Many people might use the phrase "I'm offended" for little purpose, but that doesn't mean that the phrase itself has no purpose.
A whine can have a purpose, so can complaints. Not that I'm trying to justify all whining and complaining.

Well, there's this thing called empathy, and it involves caring about other people besides yourself being happy. It's kind of a big thing.

That's exactly how I feel if anyone ever says "That's racist" to me. MFW they tell me that.

"Saying 'i'm offended' is the same as saying 'i cant control my emotions so you must control it for me'"
With that said, if someone made a homophobic joke, would he still follow this rule?
I agree with that guy, all this political corectness is going way too far, one can't even express his opinion freely without someone taking offense.

Thank god. Now I have something to quote every time I hear or see butthurt.
Would you look at that: another content with the title of the person that is pictured, right next to a quote said by that person.
