OK I think I understand the misunderstanding now... you have in fact no clue what people have on their mind when they use the words "politically correct".
Before expressing your problem(s) with these words please go and do some reading until you understand a tiny bit when, how and why people actually use them. I'm not asking you to agree - just to have a vague idea of what you are talking about.
> Do you find it amusing if someone asks not to be referred to in a derogatory or exclusionary manner?
In general: no. In rare cases like this PyCon story: yes, it can be quite ridiculous sometimes.

I said pretty clearly what I think of the "political correctness" argument above. You chose not to explain what you mean by it, but instead attack me for insufficient mind reading of "what people have on their mind".
