The word ******

[mangudai954]

Is this a racist term or just a general term for dark skinned people? I was lead to believe it was racist till I was watching Corey Holcomb's 5150 internet show a while back and Darlene(a cohost who is Mexican) said it wasn't racist. Then I heard a Hispanic coworker at my job use the term while talking to someone with me and another Black dude nearby which made me wonder. I asked Columbian and Peruvian people I worked with about it and they said they never heard that word before. Was this chick talking greasy?

Yes it is. Growing up in cali, you here it every now and then.

 

[shotsrangout]

[niketalker23]

Yes it is, It definitely has a negative connotation.

Report him to your manager. Or catch him outside.

I used to get called that by relatives (I'm Mexican) because I had earrings and rocked Maurice Malone jeans. It was a good lesson on how NOT to think and act. People who use that term sound like uneducated losers.

 

[bendover]

Yea
Don’t think I’ve ever used that word.

 

[akajae]

Yea, that’s a no no.

Some Hispanic people might try to defend it, but it is definitely used as the N-Word but with Er.
Mah-Yah-Te if you ever hear it you have every right to be offended, & I’d say throw hands.

 

[the coolness]

I'm Colombian and have never heard of this word. We might say moreno/a to refer to a black individual but that's not meant to be derogatory
