[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Maybe not in North America. But in Europe it is definitely on the same level as the N word is here. And frankly, [i]who are you to decide what's more offensive to respective minority[/i]? [/quote] this exactly. So tired of others helpfully dictating to me the ranking order of offensiveness. If you are the son of two sharecroppers, by definition you have no experience with being the son of 4 grandparents who were made to walk the Trail of Tears at gunpoint. Stuff it[/quote] OK. Some of the posters on this thread have said that the g-word is as offensive in Europe (part or all) as the n-word is here. What about here? Is the g-word, in any context, as offensive as the n-word? I do't think it is, but if the Roma tell me it is, then I'll delete it from my vocabulary. Some words are okay in some countries/cultures and not okay in others. That doesn't mean they should be banned worldwide. [/quote]
