Going to get something that is off my chest here. I think today's world is easily offended over every little thing. They
cant even enjoy a movie or tv show without being offended over something
that isn't worth being offended by.
Sometimes I would rant and rave about the lack of creativity done in Hollywood. But the more I think about it the more I start to look at the other side of the coin. Hollywood is still lazy when it comes to creativity but most of the time it can be hard to do anything creative without offending anyone who has thin skin. Then you go and limit yourself cause you're so afraid that you would hurt someone's feelings.
If there is anything I've learned, not just in writing but in life, its that you cant please everybody. And you shouldn't be concerned about trying to please those who are just going to drag you into the dirt. I'm not advising writers to intentionally look at offending but I'm advising that if you have a story to tell then tell it. If it pushes the envelope then so be it. But at the end of the day its your story. If some people cant appreciate that then don't sweat it. You're in control of how you tell your story
