Kind of confused these days as to what is accepted. I'm white, call me white..not offended. Call me a white twat, still not offended. Say something to someone of a different skin colour, or sexual orientation, major pc wars. Can anyone clarify, what is accepted? A non white person, is now reffered to as .........? A raging bum bandit is now refferd to as........? How do you not offend people in this day?
I have no idea mate. What right have others got to decide what's offensive & what isn't? Something is only offensive if it offends the individual. Some people are thicker skinned than others.
Still confused mate, can you call darker folks, black or coloured, which one least offends them these days? What about the camel jockeys, ragheads, arabs, flop flips, middle eastern with a tan, i've no idea. Asians, where do you start?
Meh. My friends call me brown bear and the mocha man. Then again these people are my mates. I'd refrain from using skin tone (be it black, white, brown, yellow or blue) in general though tbh. Some people are weak. For what it is worth, I have noticed it is white people that get most offended by the names you have mentioned, in general. Make of that what you will.
I've no idea mate, i'm just interested, been away so long, and people get heated up over what was once just normal talk to us. What is accepted these days? Lots of old words and sayings, now seem frowned upon.
How do you offend a Muslim Don't be a Muslim. F*ck the politically correct brigade. I say what I want and when I want to.
Why would you not be offended if someone called you a twat? White or not, someone is trying to offend you. It's when people are deliberately offensive, which you would be if you used the words above?
No idea where the "political" side of things needs to come into play, if a person refrains from calling another person because of their skin colour for argument sake then to me you could call that decency & common courtesy. All this political correctness 5hit is just a brainwashing tool used by the elite to mold people into the image that they see as fit for their subservient cattle. Bunch of control freak, *****phile, pricks that don't live in the same reality that normal people do.
That's my thinking mate. I once got banned of another site,(some on here are members of) for calling some randon internet user a jock tart or whore. wtf.
I think it is now quite acceptable and politically correct to refer to a black person as black. However, this wasn't the same a few years back which tells me that political correctness is fluid and changeable.
No, I don't follow the code, why should I. After all, we all existed before the words politically correct were ever uttered by anybody and good people & morals existed before that. Used the colour reference as it seems to be the most popular topic within the politically correct spectrum. As for my comments regarding the likes of these ****ing politicians, and you've probably gathered I'm not too fond of them, there's plenty of stuff out there on the internet as to what some of these creatures get up too.
