We will have to agree to disagree. I think WASP is a demeaning and derogatory name and she shouldnt have used it.

C***K is a racial slur.
She has not yet been wrong, the only issue is some people deciding they are going to be offended, while others decide not to be.
She used a term to describe white protestants that was coined by a white Protestant and never meant to be offensive. People just decided to be offended if they didn't like the tone of the person saying it.
Well, that was easy

I don't mean to be offensive here, but you're not the one deciding if our ships sink or float.Anonymous 1 wrote: ↑Mon Apr 06, 2020 8:06 pmWe will have to agree to disagree.

We might disagree, and that's ok.

I didn’t know that. I had to look it up. I’m sure I’m not the only one who has and will have Troy me saying it. Parents who give their children unusual names set that child up for a lifetime of unneeded issues. The child will more than likely go with her middle name. As I already stated, I hope this child is strong.
It has never felt like a hindrance. People mispronounce my DSs’ names sometimes and we all laugh about it. I just don’t see how this causes “unneeded issues”
