Sounds like a them problem. The reasoning you describe seems somewhat self centered. I'm not sure I want to worry too much about people who go through life assuming everyone else's statements are a direct commentary about themselves. | ||||||||

To try and analogy. Would you think it reasonable for a mens health magazine to choose to not feature obese people on the cover? But on the other hand, Would you think it reasonable for people to feel singled out when they choose to make a public declaration that they will never put an obese person on the cover? | ||||||||

Its sort of like the people whom start gushing about how they are not an alcoholic as soon as you mention you don't drink anymore. Just smile and nod and let them twist themselves into a knot. | ||||||||
