Fair enough with your post, at least you are not pretending not to have heard the other two say the word though.

And while you've got your mirrors out take another long hard look, and wonder why you've spent four pages of debate concerning what politically correct word is or isn't acceptable this week. Doesn't it make you think that perhaps society is getting rather sinister????

From Wiki ^^

Why is nobody clocking the racial sterotyping?

In modern usage in the United States, the term "cholo" usually indicates a person of Mexican or Mexican-American descent, generally mestizo or Amerindian, who is associated with American cultural subgroups such as the "lowrider" car culture, or the hip hop scene in general. The term is used in Caló slang, but it in turn has infiltrated into mainstream American English.

That's why.

Exactly, but people will/can choose to ignore the information as it is much more convenient to have something to whinge about.

This reminds me of last year, when people were desperately trying to stop Gary from winning. It failed!

Channel 5 has been forced to cut scenes from Celebrity Big Brother 2015 over fears of more complaints.



We told on Monday how the show attracted a further 1,100 complaints in its second week to TV watchdog Ofcom.

Every single episode attracted at least 10 complaints while a number saw over 100, with one episode seeing more than 800 people write in.

They’re in addition to the 500 complaints in the opening week which saw the ejection of two housemates.

Last night saw Perez Hilton return to the house and immediately wind up Katie Hopkins.

While we did seen him chase, kiss and even LICK Katie, more of Perez’s antics were cut from the episode.

In scenes not shown, Perez spent the evening “frantically thrusting his hips” at Katie before telling her to “lick it good, suck this d***, just like you should”, The Sun newspaper reports.



The tabloid claims that bosses axed the segment due to “fearing a major backlash” from viewers.

Meanwhile, Big Brother had to call Cami Li to the Diary Room this week to investigate whether her nickname “Chola” was potentially offensive.

Evicted Patsy Kensit revealed: “Cami Li is like my little Chola. It’s a Latina gangster. I love all American films and stuff so I was talking to her about stuff like that and Chola’s a name I’ve heard in a film and she loved it.

“But [Big Brother] called her upstairs and said, ‘Is it an offensive term? Chola?’ And she was like, ‘No, it’s great!'”

Celebrity Big Brother 2015 continues nightly on Channel 5.

What on earth, how can anyone complain when they have been warned every 15 minutes about potential offensive content, it's the equivalent of someone turning on a porn movie and then complaining about the content

[Gogonoel]

So yall gonna rag on Perez for using Latin slang while being Latino but not on Cami-Li for appropriating AAVE all day.

[Mercado]

Once again, in The US where Perez and Cami. Li are from cholo or chola is not derogatory. In South America it can be used offensively. My aunts were cholas,and they were tough cookies.
