UFO aliens and racism. Should we call aliens 'Greys'. Isn't this just a reference to their skin color?

Question

Isn't 'Bigfoot' just reference to another physical characteristic?

Answer 1

"greys" is a much kinder term than "bug-eyed, freaky-looking monsters"

Answer 2

So what?

If you, as a race, are being derided - work to improve yourselves until such derision is unfounded.  Crying about being called a name does nothing for your standing in the community.

Did the Colonials cry and demand that the Tories stop calling them 'Yankee Doodles'?  No - they turning it in the Tories' faces and, to this day, still wear the name 'Yankee' proudly.

Answer 3

then again, "black" is a reference to skin color, and so is "white", but they are not racists. its more about calling them what they are not. "******" means "a stupid and foolish person". they called black people that because they thought they were inferior to whites. Bigfoot is neither offensive or degrading. good question, i enjoyed answering it.

Answer 4

lmao, just picturing the aliens coming to court and suing human kind for labeling them lol They have been called many different in ancient times they were called Gods, in modern times aliens,  it keeps changing all the time, to some people they are just plain monsters, and to some they are living beings, bigfoot got his name because of the size of the foot print the scientists found, I guess it would just be a physical characteristic.

Answer 5

or we could just call them aliens, like everyone else

Answer 6

What if they're green?  Have you met one yet to know that they are gray in color??  Ugh, silly question...

Answer 7

"Greys" Would you want your sister to marry one of THEM?

And I tell you what, we're not letting any of those "Greys" in our country club.

and they'd better not be hanging around in my neighborhood.
