[QUOTE="Glocktogo, post: 2727192, member: 1132"] I'm saying that even double standards are judged on a double standard. In other words, it's possible for high profile black athletes to use the word on national TV and get a complete pass, yet other "ingroup" usage of otherwise derogatory words and phrases will recieve more scrutiny. As for the anthropological part, yes you're using science and its perfectly legit. Now go tell someone you're doing an anthropological study on the phenomenon of repurposing derogatory words in black culture, and you'd like to speak with them about it. Let me know how that goes. :) [/QUOTE]
