KaiserSchnitzel posted:At 44 years old, I still don't understand why the word "honkey" is a slur. "Cracker" at least is something I can trace a connection with ("whip-cracker = slave owner); "white devil" is just ridiculous but at least easily understood; "whitey" is obvious but still not something that offends me - but "honkey" is a mystery. Even Wikipedia has nothing but a bunch of nonsense as explanation (under "honky"). It's a common misconception that cracker comes from the "whip crack". Your right there are no racial slurs that white people get offended by.
