"You don't have the right to NOT be offended!"

[Reason]

I have always held this belief;

I am looking for analytical sources that explore this subject to assist in a possible research paper on the topic.

Any help would be much appreciated! :)

Well, you can offend someone by the harsh, or the gentle method.

I might have a CONTRACTUAL right not to be offended. For example, if I go to a movie theater and you start running up and down the aisle naked, I might claim I had a right not to be offended in that way and demand my money back. The same might apply in any private commercial setting.

The issue you raise is typically only an issue as a consequence of public property.
