Are the words B***h and Ho classified as racist words now?

Question

I was wondering.

Answer 1

Not racist but racial. None but blacks use those words in everyday speech.  Of course, within the black community (whatever that is) it is sexist. But that's a matter for black women to complain about if they feel like it.

Answer 2

No, just offensive.  Unless, in the case of the first, you are talking about breeding poodles and Christmas in the case of the second.

Answer 3

No, just tacky!!

Answer 4

Not necessarily.  The first one has been around for centuries, and the second one is mispronounced, but also an oldie.  They don't apply to any particular ethnic group, but just to females in general, who are deserving of those particular designations.  

Answer 5

Sexist, not Racist
