[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So mistakes are now micro aggressions? Jesus.  :roll: [/quote]
After you’ve been politely corrected for 6 months, it’s either a micro aggression or the person is an idiot. [/quote]

My last name is French. Everyone is always pronouncing it wrong and in all different ways. They often spell it wrong too. Should I be telling the kids’ parents that they’re commuting a micro aggressions and are like totally probably racist and ignorant because they can’t pronounce my French last name correctly, nor can they spell it right? Lol!!! There are SO many names in this world and unless one is super common than it’s not uncommon to say them wrong or spell them wrong.

Get it over. I’ve been over it my whole life. [/quote]

Yeah, this is really very minor.

Any name that is different will be pronounced wrong and spelled wrong. I have a not very common English surname and I answer to all the ways it is pronounced and misspelled.

If you have a name that is not John Jones, Mary Smith, or something super simple, it's going to be mangled. It's best to learn to live with it early. [/quote]
