Well I don't find any of that funny. "******" is an offensive word and, in my opinion, one which should never be uttered, especially to a black woman's face!
That's only your opinion. I've heard opinions from black women who endeavour to use the word in a new, friendlier context, so as to abolish altogether a past context that was such an insult.
I can't believe what I'm reading here. How can people actually DEFEND the use of one of the most offensive words in the English language?
