Ive never been a fan of the term 'common sense'....

after all, who is it common to?

and because no one seems to ask or question, we assume thought processes that are unquestioned to us, but may seem blasphemous or even offensive to another. But I think that the major flaw in everyone just thinking a little more to avoid stepping on other people's toes is that we think based off of what we personally call 'common knowledge' or 'common sense'.. so that base for us getting along may be flawed because not everyone is on the same page as far as thoughts, ideas and customs/ culture goes.
