That man is 50 something he came up in a time when society and probably his family used the term mentally retarded. Mental retardation is a real condition. We have since learned better ways to refer to people with that condition. We have terms that have not been turned into pejorative , an insult. We have terms that don't focus on what some may view as a handicap. If she used the term, [b]realized that was not the way to go, and corrected it by re- writing, [/b]good for her. And don't try to say it is the same as calling a black person a nigger. That word was never used to describe a medical condition, it was always intended as an insult!!![/quote] How do you know that that's what happened? Would you acknowledge that perhaps her PR firm made her change the offensive language?[/quote]
