its the same reason why we dont say the other word we dont want you to think were racesist or anything because some blacks take it in a wrong way one of my best friend is black I can say anythngto her but when I stay the night I am affraid to say anything cause I called her the and word cause I wasnt meaning it in a bad way then her dad wont let me come over anymore even know I would never say anything to hert her

Answer #11

Because a lot of white people have white guilt for absolutely no reason. Sometimes they feel uncomfortable because they feel like they’re doing something wrong, even when they’re not. I call my black friends black, and my white friends white. I never saw any white person get upset when you call them white. They are. I never saw any black person get upset because they got called black. If they do, I don’t know what the stink is about.
