Bill: Have you gone to the HR presentation on being culturally sensitive in the office?
Ted: Oh yeah, I am a duhversity expert. Now that I've seen a powerpoint and eaten ethnic food, I am definitely no longer culturally clueless.

Get the duhversity mug.difference between cultures. Although I am a liberal i do agree it has been taken to an extreme. People don't understand that other people's cultures do not need to be forced upon others. All that is needed is simple recognition. Everyone should be allowed to do their thing whether it is christmas, kwanza, or whatever. The difference is they should not have to abolish their own culture to avoid hurting other groups feelings. Wehn you played with your barbies on the playground, if another kid didn't like your barbie, that didn't mean you had to throw it away did you? No! the other kid just didn't play with it
