Upset About Pet Obesity for the Wrong Reasons

I know. But so you want to further give those people power to hurt you even generations later? There's been plenty of words like that that aren't even remotely as taboo. Human history is one of suffering and overcoming. It is just a word, still. What you make of it is up to you, because there will always be people who are disrespectful.

But the converse is also true, people that do care don't speak for the whole group. I've always maintained that people are individuals. It's not that serious; if someone likes to be referred to a different way, it's easy enough to mention in a conversation. I've heard people that don't like to be referred to as Native too, either because it's too broad or isn't really an accurate term.
