One should be mindful of how one phrases their opinions to ensure that they are not seen as offensive or insensitive. This can be achieved by using words or language that conveys sensitivity and respect towards the other person's views, while still clearly expressing one's own opinion. For example, rather than using language such as "you shouldn't" or "that's wrong," it can be more beneficial to use language like "I don't agree" or “That’s different than what I believe.” This method will show support for the other person and at the same time allow them to understand where you are coming from without feeling judged.

It's important to be respectful when expressing opinions, particularly in sensitive topics. A good way to phrase an opinion is with "I think" or "In my opinion," this gives context and eliminates the attack by giving space for understanding and discussion.
