Didn't read all the responses, but slang words change meaning.
If I say something is retarded, it means something wrong with it. It doesn't mean I hate kids with developmental disabilities. I wouldn't call someone with a mental handicap as a retard.
But I guess we have to start calling oriental rugs asian rugs. Oriental veggies should also be called asian blend.
Maybe I should demand people stop using the word stupid. I was called that many times and I found it offensive (not really, just sayin).
Gay has also evolved. If I call someone gay, it isn't derrogatory as it once was. It's like calling someone straight. ****got is offensive to some gay people, not the ones I talk to. Hell I call them Queens, Princesses etc. They embrace it and find it funny as hell.
I guess we should stop calling people Princesses too?
