It is true what you say that political correctness has actually interfered with good communication. Its why this nation can't solve its problems because we don't know how to talk to one another any longer too many trigger warnings micro aggressions and need for safe spaces And, dating/courting a lost art as we need dot.coms to connect.
Not being politically correct here...............but I remember the moms' gathering place was the clothes line in the backyards.
