they do it at my school too. It really bothers me because i was raised to believe that those words where not what we say in public. Idon't understand why the blacks call each other the n word because it seems to me that it has always had a bad conotation. I think that the rappers have had a negative influence on our youth today.

I don't think they're terms of endearment, personally I find them offensive.

 Zach [Todd Lowe]- "-Singing- A mighty fortress is our God, a bulwark never failing." Dude, what's a bulwark?
Brian [John Cabrera]- What?
Zach- It says, "A bulwark never failing."
Brian- I think it's a wall?It all depends on how you say it and how you think about it. For example, I am not offended by swear words. Unless someone is trying to hurt me by saying them, that sometimes offends me. But I don't see why casual swearing would offend someone. They're just words.  Zach- Then why don't they just say that? Bulwark sounds totally gay.
Brian- -Laughs- I don't think you're supposed to call a hymn gay. It's like a sin or something.
Zach- Whatever, man. I'm not saying bulwark.

I got one for ya, is Santas classic greeting of ho ho ho offensive to you?
On yahoo! i read somthing about austraillian santas have to change their greeting to "ha ha ha" becuase its offesive. To me calling some one a whore isn't nessisary but in the end its just a word isnt it?

~[You say they're just words but you just said that you are offended when someone says it to you. It wouldn't offend you so much if "they're just words".
My problem is when people say them because they think if they use the word that they will "take the power away from it". When in reality they are still offended when people say them. It shouldn't matter if you are taking the power away. In reality usuing those words with eachother isn't doing anything at all but making those words a natural part of their vocabulary, making it easier to use those words when they are angry.]~

Zach- It says, "A bulwark never failing."
Brian- I think it's a wall?I said sometimes, and I didn't say it offends me a lot.
It isn't the word that offends me, it's the fact that someone is insulting me. Zach- Then why don't they just say that? Bulwark sounds totally gay.
Brian- -Laughs- I don't think you're supposed to call a hymn gay. It's like a sin or something.

It depends on how its meant, in my opinion. If the people involved know its a joke and they see it as a term of endearment then I don't see the harm of it, and if anyone overhearing the conversation doesn't like hearing the word they should just ask that it's not used when they're around.

What makes them offending is the meaning. The intension.
You can offend someone without using any offending words at all.
They are "only words".

I never use it as a term of endearment. I may occasionally call one of my friends a ho or something, but that's just when I'm teasing them about something that is kind of related.
My fiancee and I call each other whores all the time, though. Not as a term of endearment, of course, but more of like, "You hung out with a pole dancer at the bar last night, and came back to my house so that you could vomit in my bathtub? Good job, you dirty whore. It's now time for you to get over your hangover and clean out my bathtub. Here's the bleach, now hop to."
Or something like that.

 well...i know i've said "boo you whore" allot especially after mean girls came out. lol but it was a joke to my boyfriend at the time.
I ..have called my mom a b***h before when i was pissed....i usually only use those terms when im slightly angry and meaning to insult some one. lol
Its like that caddy half assed way to insult some one and pull it off as a joke to me.
and yes i agree with that. it doesn't bother me unless they mean it in a mean way.
Now! that being said as for the word the "N"word.. rolleyes
I grew up in atlanta georgia and i know racism very well. I also know if i had dared to say anything like that in the wrong part of town i would dead. Its just as racist for them to say that to each other as it is for me to say it to them.
I can't do jack squat about them calling me a cracker faced hoe...but Lord help me if i say the dreaded N word.
I'll tell you why they say it though. The route of it, its not that their ignorent. Its not a term of endearment. No its a way to show we can do something you can't. Its a how do i put this? Their thumbin their noses at white people by being able to say that but white people can't.
Now weither or not young kids know that or what.its true.
In the south theres a saying and i really believe it..
"their not going to be happy till were picking their cotton"
I would like to add i have nothing against black people in general. I do have issues with racist black people.
ahem, however thats a whole another topic rather than calling some one a whore.
being a whore these days, doesn't seem to be as a bad thing as it used to be for some strange reason. stare I mean if your a virgin past the age of what ? 14 now your a freak. I know i felt like i was when I Was 15,nearly 16 when i lost mine. It was a "thank god finally" moment for me anyways...

Is this really any different from swearing at things? I mean, I hear people say stuff like "F%@$-ing locker!" when they can't get it to open or "D#!& dog!" when they call and it doesn't come. Do we really want to have sex with the locker or send our dog to hell? No. But somehow the use of that language has become "cool" and "hardcore." Unfortunately, I think the over use has meant that when you really need intense words to express a situation, those words have been drained of any real meaning. If you tried to explain that the girl you know really is a slut, people might think you were just complaining about her and had a grudge, not that she actually was one.
