Political Correctness has been taken too far lately and been dragged almost into the absurd.
However, me as a writer and as a relatively normal person, I try to be kind and polite and decent and respectful to all humans and most animals. (I still don't think spiders are supposed to come into my house just because it's warm and dry and cozy.)
My characters however are sometimes rude, sometimes ignorant and sometimes downright asshats.
I think I usually try and show that it's negative though.
And I try not to put a character into a situation just because they are black, a woman, gay, thin, fat, blonde, ginger or something else.
