 | I believe that tenuous popular opinion is what drives that accepted norms: What is average, what is sane, what is pretty or ugly, what is normal. And in order to change the "universally accepted," all we need to do is agree to all agree on a new standard... | |

| Then, and only then, can we move away from the increasingly archaic concept of "politically correctness," which only perpetuates offensive terminology by shining a flashlight on what is and isn't accepted, thereby drawing the sought after attention to the speaker... | |

| Such a change of "headspace" is far too radical to do in one fell swoop, of course, but the seeds of change could start simply. For example, if you and I were to agree to a new standard. let's say that from now on, I was considered "shorter" and you were considered "taller." The roots of the popularly accepted would be in question... | |
