Louisville, CO Lines: 9 I was just thinking that in a lot of the talk on this topic, people have been speaking as if sensitivity was a commodity that you can trade for companionship, sex, love... or as if it was an insurance policy that could protect the bearer against abuse and harm. If sensitivity (and a lot of other things as well) is any good at all, it is in the way it makes you treat others, not in the way it ought to make others treat you. Be sensitive/caring because you must, not because of what you've heard it might get you.
