I don't consider homosexual to be derogatory. Why should it be, if its just a harmless matter of sexual choice?
See Jim that’s the problem it’s not about what you consider to be derogatory or offensive.
whether it’s derogatory or not, can only be decided by the person it’s being used against or towards
Not the speaker determination, that it’s not derogatory
I’ll give you an example my wife was trying to remember a girl she worked with temporarily on the floor with the oncoming nurse who’s black she couldn’t remember the girls name but she knew the girl was black but my wife referred to her as colored .
And the black nurse who is relieving her tore, her new one for using the term colored, basically telling her refer to her is black it’s offensive the color colored
If my wife’s mistake was unconscious one, and a lesson was learned
but there are people who use terms to incite intimidate, or embarrass others. It happened here a few days ago.
