The problem with this sentiment is that if no one corrects us when we speak about these issues amongst friends then when we do have the chance to speak about it in a work or other environment, we sound like troglodytes. Would you rather a friend told you about the spinach in your teeth or a person at work?
And if you are in any position of power, no one is going to correct you in a professional environment and you run the risk of creating the exact environment that we are seeing now exists.
Assuming the best possible intentions of Fuzz, which I do, his question, in a work environment with a possible victim in hearing range, would stifle the likelihood of them coming forward. "Well, he just thinks it is my fault. Maybe it is." That is not acceptable.
