Not politically correct?

Is anyone else sick of political correctness? I'll tell you my story:
I was with a few friends the other day and I referred to someone as mixed race, one of my white friends told me I couldn't say that.
I asked 'why?'
He said 'because its not PC and offensive.' I obviously put him straight and said I'm mixed race, its not offensive, and I'll keep saying it.

Does anyone else get annoyed about Political correctness and people telling you what you can't say? I personally think if your fat you can use the word fat, if your black you can use the word niga, Chinese can say Chink ect. I mean its your race or people so can you not refer to them as you want?

What if you're quoting someone? Can you say it?

Also why is it not PC to use colour to describe?


For example:

Emmanuel Adebayor and Nicklas Bendtner

If somebody asked who is who (they didn't know about football) you could say "the big man up front" (but they are both big men)

If you said "Adebayor is the black guy/Bendtner is the white guy" would that be racist? You are not using their race in a derogatory manner.

There never was a school where they are forced to sing "Baa Baa rainbow sheep", nor are the phrases "blackboard" and "white board" banned ANYWHERE, you ARE, in fact, still allowed to buy black coffee, black tea, blackcurrant juice and blackberries. None of those stories have any basis in fact and are entirely sensationalised urban myths perpetuated by right wing propaganda eg the daily mail

Giving yourself the oh so witty label of "Politically incorrect" does not make you "new" or "edgy" it makes you a bigot with a catchy label.

People should shut the **** up about it, political correctness as it is defined in the media DOES NOT EXIST, liberal bogeyman have no plans to steal away your rights to free speech, and most PC is an invention of the right wing to demonise and hinder social progress. Baa baa rainbow sheep doesn't exist.

Stop believing everything you read in tabloids. It will not end well for you.

And how the hell do you know that 'Baa Baa Rainbow Sheep' wasn't and isn't sung?

I once referred to a fictional character on TV as 'Half Black' and got torn up by a women with a 'mixed race child'. The starting comment was 'what colour was her other half'. This person was very petite and white and stressed she would only sleep with "Muscular Black Men".

There is only one time where a white person can say the N word.

If it's Christmas Eve, and it's between 4:30 and 4:49 in the morning, and you're on your way to Toys 'R' Us to get your kid the last Transformer doll, and right before you walk into Toys 'R' Us, some black person runs up beside you, smacks you in the head with a brick, knocks you to the ground, stomps on your face, saying "Take that, you cracker-ass mother and he Riverdances on your head, takes your money, pisses on you, and runs away- if you're white, at that moment, you can say "Somebody stop that !"

...Since when has mixed-raced been offensive? I'm mixed-raced. So, what's the alternative to describing 'ourselves'? It's not like we can call ourselves English or anything without being challenged for it.

Because Black is not a derogatory term. And I think your very mistaken schools in the UK anyway are always being told about words that are not to be used such as 'Brainstorm' was out ruled

Abolition of the slave trade was where it all started. Bloody hand-wringing liberal PC do-gooders.
