Being offensive is where others are offended by you..which I believe is a choice.
Having an un popular opinion just means the majority disagrees with you. Hopefully a difference of opinion is not offensive. |

What's the difference between being offensive and holding an unpopular opinion? Offensive's purpose is to offend someone, while an unpopular opinion has nothing to do with being offensive, just not widely supported or agreed. |

hmmmmmm maybe the presentation???? good question...not sure I can explain it I think this is a viable answer. ![]() Eloquence in speech and organization, verification of facts, and not putting your audience on the defensive is more palatable than someone who spews their opinions willy-nilly with ignorance, hate, and unfounded information. |

It's a fine line at times.............
![]() If one gives and opinion towards the topic regardless if others think that way or not it is just your unbiased opinion..... Now to give and opinion and direct it towards others in and attacking form as if their opinion does not count then you have crossed that line and now it is being offensive towards others..... But now there are many subjects that tend to take some from 0-attacking real quick so as long as one keeps to the subject and not direct their answers towards a specific person normally it will stay more on a debate level...... By the way this is only my opinion........... ![]() |

To say "I believe killing baby ducks is within my rights" would be an unpopular opinion.
To say "I believe in killing baby ducks and anyone who disagrees with me is stupid" is obnoxious. |

Eloquence....check. Organised speech and grammar....check. Verification of facts.....check. Not putting the audience on the defensive.....hmmmmm....so that's the problem....thanks Melody. I guess I am just naturally abrasive....(it's the accent, isn't it?) ![]() ![]() |

unfortunately if you have an unpopular opinion people think you are offensive but those are just the sensitive ones and "frankly my darlin, I don't give a damn!"

What's the difference between being offensive and holding an unpopular opinion? You can hold an unpopular opinion without being offensive...but generally, if you're offensive, your opinion will be unpopular. ![]() |

"I believe the bible is a book of fairytales"
"I believe killing animals to eat them is murder" Both are opinions which are also deemed "offensive". No attacking necessary. |

Ahhh but the sensitive and defensive folk take offense to that. They personalise those statements and make them about themselves, and need to justify by being offended and attacking. |

If someone finds something that I say or do offensive..does not necessarily mean it was my intention to offend them..
I don't swear around my mother..it offends her. Everyone gets to choose what is offensive to them. Personally I don't take offensive to much of anything..there is always something to be offended by if your looking... |
