What is your advice in dealing with discussions that start becoming problematic with disagreements on touchy subject issues? I have my own opinions, but I stongly believe that anyone is allowed to their own opinion, and that I'm not going to make a big deal out of something if I disagree. But occasionally, posts with obvious disagreement on a touchy subject (like sex and gender) pop up, and I'm not sure how to react or deal with it.

Should I allow every side to post their opinion, or when do I need to step into a conversation if it seems one or both sides are going too far? Am I allowed to request a refocus on a discussion if posts start devolving into a non-related discussion on a touchy subject, or ask to avoid a touchy subject entirely? I'm not sure how I should react in some of these cases, and I want to make sure I'm being wise about it.

Thank you!
