I disagree strongly. The very meaning of being sensitive means sensitive to others feelings. I think what Hylas is talking about is "fragile" or "handle with care" people. I consider myself sensitive ecause I am in touch with my emotions and conscious of other people's emotions. I am constantly seeking to better this ability. On the other hand, somebody who needs to be handled with care because they whine at the slightest thing or do so because they crave attention has a different kind of "sensitivity" problem. Somebody who genuinely cries easily, however, for whatever is probably because of real problems that hurt them on the inside. Unfortunately, it's not easy to tell the difference a lot of the time so we are left with a society full of people constantly judging who has real problems or not. Most of the time, though, people are not in the right place to judge.
Hylas, I don't know with what type of person or persons you are dealing with so it is up to you to decide that for yourself.
The point of my post is that one must be careful when they judge.
