Interesting, don’t you think? A classic case of ‘othering’, and a self-styled etiquette maven thinks that the people who are offended by this are the ones with the problem.
“Some fans of this site are entirely too wound up living their lives in a perpetual state of hypersensitivity to being offended about something their fellow man has done to them. It’s as if they look for ways to be offended every morning when they wake up.”

The admin is an upper-middle class white conservative Christian woman. So strong is her privilege that she has in the past seen fit to force her religious views upon guests and condemned them for being rude when they objected.
The woman has also compared cultural practices that do not meet the standards of upper-middle class white conservative Christian United States values to slavery, cannibalism, and feminine genital mutilation. What cultural practice gained such scorn from her, you ask? The European practice of inviting your friends out to a restaurant on your birthday.
That’s privilege. That’s arrogance.
And that’s rude.
