It's weird that many of us are not allowed to even use a certain word even in a correct context or in a positive way because of the nature of the word or it's history/abuse. I don't think any words should be banned and all should be free to say. It is the manner when someone says it that defines the intent on it's use.

Take Cumberbatch recently, he said 'coloured' in reference to actors who are not white. All I say is so? Did no one listen to what he was actually saying? The people who condemn are idiots and retarded.

EDIT: The fag thing is odd, in the UK someone says fag you think of a cigarrette first, not anything else. But a good example is the fact more commonly the word gay is being used in replacement for lots of situations for the word 'bad'. There are 600 or more variations on the word bad yet people choose 'gay'. A good example would have been when it will be banned.


No, you cant have an autocratic police state without euphemisms!  you need words like "untermensch" to dehuminise your enemys.
