I had a discussion about this with my girlfriend. After much deliberation, we concluded that I am an ignorant cracker.

I believe the term was nappy ho. Is slanted eye ho a racist term? I believe when you make derogatory remarks concerning someones ethnic traits then you are making a racist remark.

Not at all, on its own.

Stevie Wonder wrote in I Wish "when I was a little nappy headed boy". There's nothing wrong with nappy on its own.

ClosetIguana- Refering to a group of Asians as "slant-eyes" is racist on it own.

In the UK a nappy is a something you put on a baby to catch poop.

^well, that would be true, and subsequently not technically racist (unless used in a derogatory fashion)

I think it's mean to use any term that insults people.

I don't know any more. Who knows what one will find offensive and more over why should I give a flying f if what I say hurts someone's feeling inadvertently?

It was pretty clear though, that the intent of the statement was meant to be racist

Racist towards who? People with nappy hair? Some white people have nappy hair
I wouldn't think so

There are people of all differing races that can have it, no?

However, in this politically correct atmosphere that leftists have built, a lot is thought of as racial which in reality is not.

Islam is a race. The third world is a race. AIDS is a race. I have heard this kind of nonsense not only on this site, but also outside it.

Only if it's said with hatred in your heart - otherwise it's kind of a funny word!
