The term does, of course, describe me and my kin.
Question is what does the "white" imply -- generally, I'd think most people of color would not want to be included in this particular club or culture. But is there a sub-silento suggestion that the term distinguishes the white trash from all other trash, e.g., people of color or some subset thereof? I don't think the term needs to imply that, especially when used by those reared in the hollows between the mighty Appalachains. |

I think it does imply that. Its use by someone who claims to belong to that group doesn't redeem the term for me, either. It just grates. |

I believe that was off of one foot, which, while impressive, is easier than jumping that distance off of two feet.

What of your people, the WASPs? Should they just be the ASPs? Is this a broad-based objection to the use of "White" to describe any group?

Is this a proposed new name for Applebees? I think we all already know it is a chain. |

If Anglo-Saxon Protestant is derogatory, then yes; in fact, ASP would be perfect.

It is redundant -- I mean, there aren't really any non-white Anglo Saxons. |

I heard that getting the first hand into your gaping gash was no problem at all. The second and third ones were tougher, though. |

So, I was researching the origins of the use of "gash" on this board and found it interesting that paigow evidently adopted it from Slave. Nifty. |
