Actually, YES. If you are offended by the term, you are offended by the term and that is understandable and to be respected......BY EVERYONE REGARDLESS OF PIGMENTATION AT BIRTH. Being of the same birth pigmentation as someone using a racial slur doesn't give them the right to use a term so "offensive" if people of other birth pigmentations can't say the same without causing offense. This concept is called APPLICATION OF A SINGLE STANDARD.
