[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Exactly. I can't believe people are thinking in this day and age there is any reason to say this word to anyone. It still doesn't take the sting out of used as a derogatory word. So that is not a rationale. [/quote] I'm surprised that so many people are unfamiliar with the idea that context matters. If we're both members of [group], and I call you [pejorative for that group], then you're going to perceive that differently from if I'm not a member of [group] and I call you [pejorative for that group]. [/quote] If black people don't like that word, then they should stop using it. It's really that simple. No excuses, No double standard, No litany of convoluted attempts to rationalize. Just stop using it. [/quote] ..."excuses"?[/quote]
