Why is it that when I am describing the three major racial groups Yahoo! will not let me post one of them?

Question

Out of those three, Caucasoid, Mongloid and Neg ' roid, I have to break Neg ' roid up into two syllable to be able to post it or they do this ******* to it. What's up with that c**p?

Answer 1

crazy political correction. No one is allowed to be "offended" nowadays

Answer 2

One term: "Political Correctness" !

We are badly infected with this in today's societies. There is one thing worse than discrimination: "reverse discrimination" !

Don't get me wrong here; racism is a rotten human trait, but at least it is 'honest'. Reverse discrimination is despicable because of its insincere and cowardly character. And, those who indulge in reverse discrimination are often prone to "reverse" their reverse discrimination, and become the worst of racists out there!

Answer 3

Because it should be stated, caucasion, mongolian, and African, or African American.

Answer 4

They do it because the last word you are trying to list has a cultural meaning attached to it beyond the official definition. The context in which you use the word is not important; the word is.

Answer 5

nas caf...your answer which included the words "African American" is part of what is the problem here in this country. We need to drop all of the hypenated Americanism (African-American, Mexican-American, Asian-American etc) and just start calling ourselves Americans.
