[quote=Anonymous]Op, your vagueness isn't helping here. It's very difficult to discern intent without knowing the word. For example, my dad used the term "oriental" to describe Asian people. He had no idea it was offensive and couldn't understand that the world had changed and was no longer acceptable. If it's a word that wasn't a slur 30 or 40 years ago, it's very possible the person saying it had no idea it was offensive. The course of action we'd advice would vary depending on the circumstance - the one I described above is different than dropping the n-word. [/quote]
