I don't understand how a shortened version of a word is derogatory... :huh:

Seeing as your from the US, do you use the word "<< racial epithet >>" in everyday use or when talking to/about Hispanic people?

Why refer to yourself as a p*ki??

In the UK that's a derogatory term for a Pakistani or people who look that way.

I believe that the word has been embraced by the Pakistani community to rob it of its power, like how the black community use the 'n' word.

As a white guy, they're not words I'd feel comfortable using, or would want to use, but I can see how it would be empowering to embrace abusive words.

Oh, and Salam "mr. cena" :)
