Banned Words
As it's now a case of not wanting to offend anyone under any circumstances whatsoever, could the moderators please supply us with a comprehensive listing of all words that are henceforth banned?
I was going to do a post about restaurants involving the use of the word "Bengali", which refers to a person whose ethnic background is from Bangladesh, or East ****stan as it was known until 1970. However, given the recent edict about not referring to their ex-compatriots from the western part of the country with a similar word structure ending in "i", I'm now totally confused. I was also going to refer to a South American restaurant called "Gri*gos" (which is an american-spanish term for an anglo-saxon), unfortunatly I feel can't use this either...
Please advise
