I have to say I find it bizarre that you decry on one hand what you are literally doing on the other because you are using preconceived prejudices to say that someone else can't have an opinion.

What on earth are you on about.... Where have I said someone can't have an opinion?
How can I defend 'PC' when nobody appears to be able to define it?

Nope, what NM posted was not a definition as he said himself it relies on what is 'perceived' and that can change from person to person.
