[quote=Anonymous]Huh...I thought it was more like (American) Indian or Queer. A word that has a spotted history but that some people have adopted as their identity...but may be offensive to others. This is different than black people using the n-word with each, because I've still never heard anyone say it's socially acceptable to refer to their population that way. I think terms like "gypped", though, are considered pretty offensive. Anyway, I don't really have much call to use the word and tend to avoid it...so this is interesting to me.[/quote]
