I think it comes down to a post I made in another thread... many people of different races who call themselves terms like that do it to ease the pain and humiliation they feel when a person of a difference race calls them it. And they say it amongst themselves in a way so that it's almost ridiculing people who call them it; making themselves feel comfortable when they're together, in other words. It does not mean they like the term. Well, normal ones don't.

So I don't understand why anyone should say it to them and make them feel hurt/confused in the first place. They (the teens in particular) try and put on a sort of 'hard' image so they don't get picked on, and act like it doesn't bother them... and it's developed.
