did you tip danielle off? my guess is yes!..why else would she change her perception of shilpa all of a sudden?
you can take the girl out of the racist-bully not the racist-bully out of the girl, danielle will always be a foul mouthed racist bully.. no wonder she gets on well with jade..

you only have to look at the expressions on both girls faces and jo's when shilpa walks by.. looks that could freeze an eskimo into submission.

I don't agree with your post, but more importantly"eskimo" is apparently a racially offensive term.

Now the question is was your use of the word "eskimo" because you are racist or because you were culturally ignorant?? I'm gonna guess that you are not a racist because it takes a lot of strong evidence before I brand anyone as a racist, but some on this site are quicker to jump to conclusions than I would be.

Eskimo is a racist word

and Danielle is entitled to change her opinion of Shilpa

i was bringing jades stupid question to bb the other night into play "why are eskimo's not frozen" it went something like that..

i am not and never will be racist..

She has been nice to her face in the past but bitching behind her back to appeal to Jade but this does seem a bit forced to me.Neither have become different people over night.

Whatever way you look at it, to me Danielle is fake for either being a)nice to Shilpa's face but saying what she really thinks behind her back or b)she's bitching behind her back to fit in but actually does like her.I suspect option a to be the truth.

No I didn't think you were racist But it does show how easily someone can say something completely innocently but which may cause racial offence to others.

How can we use the word eskimo, without getting called a racist?
