[quote=Anonymous]I could be wrong, but I've never thought of it as racist since I only hear white people saying it. Same as when a black person refers to himself or others as the N word. In both cases, it can be funny coming from a comedian, or offensive otherwise. but not racist if it's coming from someone of the same race. I don't agree with the argument that it's racist because it implies that "trash is usually black" because the term is not typically used in response to AA stereotypes. In fact, I'm from the middle of the country, and the term white trash is commonly applied to racists. Just my opinion based on my own experience. I'm sure the term is used in different ways depending on the region. "Trailer Trash" is unacceptable though. [/quote]
