Although I doubt they would avoid trouble lol.

A girl was thrown out of big brother for that.

She used the word, said she and her friends would say it in a friendly way. And BB kicked her out anyway.

I remember that,she should have got a warning for it but as she didn't mean it in an offensive way she should never have been chucked out imo.

And she certainly didnt need to be thrown out at 4am or whatever it was(hours after te actual incident, but for some reason in the middle of the night...), and with no knickers on

Yeah. I don't think she was racist which some did. I just think she lived a fairly sheltered lifestyle where she had no idea how much offense she caused saying it.


Was the right decision mind.

i disagree, she moved in circles where it was said as a positive....it was only the media spotlight that changed it.

You don't call someone you don't know a *****. I wouldn't even do it. She had no excuse.


It's a common sense. The fact she didn't know this shows me her black friends didn't educate her on the word properly or she made up that she uses it all the time.

Its not common sense, common sense is inherant you dont need friends of any colour to teach you that.
Its mixed messages, it was acceptable in her social group.
If it is so derogatory and so offensive why is it used?
You don't get any other groups using a discriminatory word in general conversation.
In Bradford I would never hear 'Hi taj my p***! how are you?

Not true. Many homosexuals will refer to themselves/others as, for example, a faggot or poofter.
