But black trash isn't a phrase is it, whereas white trash is, there s probably an equivalent term for black people.

Being white I think it's ok to insult my own race, if I said it about another one then that would be bad.

I wouldn't use the N word for example.

When I lived in America, I was once called a hunky and i thought it was a compliment so i thanked him and everyone laughed except him. I was being serious, they all thought I was being flippant.

When I was in my nappies, my first big black lab was called N....r and later in life, in fact 6 years ago. I bought a jet balack open race greyhound from Ireland and it was called darkie. I raced it twice in sheffield and newcastle but when it came to manchester for an open race, the management told me they had complaints and the greyhound board re named him Blackie and his name stands till today although he is now retired. Thats PC gone mad and it was a bloodie dog.

Lol that's great, agree the world has gone pc mad.

Its nice to say things sometimes just because people are so easily wound up.

I never mean anything maliciously though.

Not to be overly PC but times have changed a bit since you were younger. Calling anyone or any animal the N word - even as a given name - is pretty revolting. But I guess it wasn't an issue back then.

Now I'm not one who is overly PC myself, some people are a bit oversensitive about things nowadays, but sometimes a bit of sensitivity and social progress is for the better. Also, just because certain things weren't seen as offensive in the past by certain people doesn't mean they actually weren't. I'm sure they were still offensive to the people involved but they just weren't talked about.

She's possibly gonna become the most offensive stereotype in the house, although her eating the Crisps in bed whilst the others were trying to sleep made me laugh.

she is one of them, a one parent family with three kids, living on benefits, how the hell did she get on bb :shrug:

Thank god, why that was every allowed is baffling :umm2:. I say this as a white person myself but the ignorance and obliviousness of some white people - especially in the past - is quite astounding.

When I was waitressing, I asked someone if they wanted black or white coffee during a function. I got told not to say black by a clergyman diner because it was racist. It was descriptive of the coffee for goodness sake.
