A good analogue might be Jesus Freaks. They get offended at everything and apply extreme standards to behavior.* And they’re rightly ignored. If you’re citing Andrea Dworkin in establishing that you’ve been harassed because your co-worker constantly talks to other men about how hot he thinks Taylor Swift is, no claim for you.
