Sweety you're missing the point. Others have expressed to you that calling them black (and a myriad of other terms) is disrespectful to them. What people have been trying to tell you and you have yet to grasp is that they don't NEED to give you a reason why they feel the way they do. They do not HAVE to engage in discussion with you on this topic.

This discussion and similar discussions have been attempted time and again on GC and members do not want to engage in said discussion once again. Should you have a implacable desire to discuss this, then find another venue, simple as that.

And just because YOU don't find white offensive doesn't mean it isn't. I know a young woman who can be/and often is categorized as "white" but the term is EXTREMELY offensive to her and she makes her feelings on the matter known should a situation arise.
