I find that I am more upset by people using the "N" word in a derogatory manner, which doesnt describe me in any way, shape or form, than by being called any of the nasty female terms, all of which could reasonably be used to describe me.
Also Im not really that upset when I was called nasty things due to my race/nationality (when I lived overseas), but I am if people use the "N" word in a joke or whatever.
(I call it the "N" word as I find the connotations and old usage nauseating)
Are there certain terms that you hate to hear?

People can be so ignorant. Same thing would happen with my dad..My family is very diverse ( I'm 11 different ethnicities and my kids are 12) and race or religion isn't a big issue for us.

) It gave me a really thick skin and actually I'm quite grateful for it now. Of course, if someone called be a sp*c, wetback, n*gger, I'd be pissed, but I wouldn't let it ruin my perspective of people like it used to.
