I remember being called Spanish bitch once at school and the teacher told them of for calling me Spanish.. it was apparently fine to call me a bitch though. I'm not even Spanish really. Weird standards the English have for racism with your anti-racism banners everywhere.  yet you are allowed to call people bitches no problem. |
Yes, what weird standards we have where it's unacceptable to shout out monkey noises at black people(!)
You cant compare calling someone fat, or saying someone is a bitch, to racially abusing somebody.
