1) Prolly so. While we won't stop being friends, some open evaluation will have to occur.
2) Yes--I think so. I think *sometimes* people aren't cognizant of the effect of their language and might not be intentionally rude, condescending or whatever else. They also might have been so comfortable saying around close quarters that outside of that, they don't see the error of their ways. But then again, some people are just assholes and don't care--don't care to know why the slur was damaging. Later for them, anyways.
