And I thought, `That's not actually anything to do with `political correctness'. That's just treating other people with respect.' Which made me oddly happy. I started imagining a world in which we replaced the phrase `politically correct' wherever we could with `treating other people with respect', and it made me smile. You should try it. It's peculiarly enlightening. I know what you're thinking now. You're thinking `Oh my god, that's treating other people with respect gone mad!'
