I was asking a question. I personally don't use that term because of it's derogatory connotations, but again, it depends on the context of the way you use it. My point was it's socially acceptable for some, but not others. Oh to live in a world where the colour of your skin didn't matter. It's actually quite crazy when you think about it. Unfortunately it's in certain people's mindsets.

I personally don't like using racial slurs either.

Unless it's anti-white ones, because obviously it's more self-depricating in that scenario.
