See, this is what comes of the belief that holding a foreign compact dic in one's hand is the same thing as having a grasp of one's native tongue. Like I told Choc, you can argue etymology but you cannot argue the fact that it's an offensive racial slur. It seems to me that the use of offensive racial slurs should be discouraged rather than encouraged. No way forward......and no way back......and the more you struggle, the faster you sink. Scary stuff, huh?  Wolfgang

Scary stuff, huh? What in the hell are you driveling on about now ? Anybody who claims that "squaw" isn't an offensive racial slur in 21st century America is either a fool or a liar. If you want to argue that "squaw" is not an offensive racial slur you might take some pride in knowing that I consider you a liar. -- Ken Fortenberry

It's certainly true that you're not the only person in the world.....or in ROFF.....who thinks women are inferior but so far you're still the only one here who has expressed a belief that they constitute a race.
