I understand your point and from that angle you are probably correct. After all, if a term were used in a derogatory way against my race for hundreds of years, I probably wouldn't care too much about the philosophical issues of "it's the person and that person's intent that makes something racist". People should probably watch remarks like that a little more carefully given the history of how the remark has been used. I was just in a pedantic mood this morning
And another thread gets hijacked by sensitive touchy feely people. If the man looks like something, then thats what he looks like, now we gotta say **** like oh Avery looks like a ****ing lion or something? Gimme a break, go and b**** in the D&D if you got a problem with the way certain words are used. Saying Avery looks like a monkey because of facial features that are observable is MUCH different than siome ignorant jackass using the N word on him.
