"Some concerns" ≠ "never ever write this"
Being asked to be thoughtful is not censoring free speech, harshing squee, or pissing in the sandbox.
It is not more oppressive to be asked to be considerate of others than it is to be the subject of systemic oppression.
Write whatever the fuck you like. But write it with thoughtfulness and respect for those for whom your "fictional situation" is a fact of daily life.
If you don't write it with thoughtfulness and respect, expect to get called on it.
Getting called on your lack of respect is far from the worst thing in the world that will ever happen to you.
Embarrassment and regret are not terminal. Nor is apologising.
