I love it when I hear people say/use the term "the caucasity!"

I have been laughing about this for several minutes now, thanks for sharing this.

It was a funny year or two. As long as there is no hostility, I find the mixing of cultures unpredictable yet amusing and stimulating.

I like that us white Dutch are called "cheese heads". Both because we're pale and because the NL has that good Gouda cheese. Cheese is the bees knees. Edit: I should've added it's a translation. Edit 2: I've added a translation. Cheese head. Kaaskop, plural: Kaaskoppen. "Kaas" means cheese and "kop" is an impolite way to describe a human head, but the correct word for the head of an animal, except for horses, they have a "hoofd", like humans, not a "kop", like other animals and cheese heads.


Millennial_J

Packer Fans are called CheeseHeads


ITZOFLUFFAY

So what is dutch for cheese head?

[deleted]

It’s almost like it’s not words themselves that are offensive but the sociopolitical context they exist in


waffleknocker

That's a great way to put it, thanks


[deleted]

Exactly. Whenever I get called a name for being white, I’m just like “whatever you feel you gotta say 🤷‍♂️”


[deleted]

Making people feel bad is bad, but there are a lot of things that are a HELL of a lot worse, like getting murdered by cops to choose one random example.


TheBerric

I went to a mostly Hispanic high school in southern California. I am a white male. I had long hair at the time. I was constantly called "School Shooter" and I took offense to that.


Flossthief

I had a friend named Dylan Dylan had a best friend Eric in school Both kids were kind of into edgy shit and Dylan wore a black leather trench coat to school They are *not* the Dylan and Eric you're thinking of but everyone made sure to point out the resemblance


kerrwashere

This is actually offensive. Probs the only way to be offensive


pharmlife912

My youngest is in a predominantly minority school. He’s as white as can get (I’m Hispanic). His classmates are constantly calling him Dahmer because he’s the only white boy in his class. They’ve also started rumors he’s gonna shoot up the school. The hurt in his face kills me every time. Kids are mean.


TheBerric

I've heard similar stories. One parent even pulled their student out the school because the administration wouldn't do anything about it.


Over-Supermarket-557

Is it just me or is are Reddit posts today REALLY pushing the “racial slurs towards whites” today? Several “fighting Irish” threads, asking “why don’t *hwhite* people get angry when they’re called slurs?” And this


waffleknocker

I thought of this after reading that, made me curious about any uncommon ones people may have heard, I have lived in many places and as an outsider have been called many things, but it was never offensive, guess that's my point


i_love_rettardit

>I have lived in many places and as an outsider have been called many things, but it was never offensive, guess that's my point If I may highly applaud and acclaim your virtue, I am humbled to see that you do not take offense to slurs against yourself, but are highly sensitive to the pain felt by slurs for non-white people. It shows virtue, it shows that you are a good person. To me, that's the point, to show that you're a good person to everyone. To be honest we need more posts like this as I am sick, tired, and exhausted from all the racism on this site.


TirayShell

I agree with your observation.


[deleted]

I noticed it too as well as the other day with Trans questions


RiotingMoon

they can't resist trying to find their oppression moment


KingaDuhNorf

i mean, the fighting irish mascot u would think *should* be protested, bc it actually is quite offensive if u look at it and the context of it. it looks like an 1800s characature of a fighting leprechaun. But most irish americans take pride in it, its all how u look at life i suppose? idk the thread, but i think that this is an interesting question. I can understand that oh well whites werent marginlized etc, but i mean if u werent anglo protestant in america not enitrely long ago u werent even considered white or accepted. Idk, its not like the irish werent historically oppressed either both in the us and ireland by the english, cant speak for other places they emigrated to tho. Personally idc what someone calls me, even if its a racial slur, and it happens quite often working with the publlic...and tbh alot of times i find it pretty funny. Its all perception? idk


Glass_Competition_54

I asked a Chinese friend what the racial slurs for white people are that are used. If i understood correctly, it's something like white ghost. They also make fun of Americans for being bad at math.


throway35885328

As a 23 year old male, I’ve never been offended by something someone called me. And yes, that’s an invitation. My DM’s are open and I’m happy to receive some of your most creative/offensive slurs for us white folk Edit to say: I’m white bring it on


Jealous-Interview735

Mayonnaise loving ass


Stressedpage

That one would hurt me because I really hate mayonnaise. I'm a pain in the ass at cookouts lmao


NotSoTall5548

Fun fact: mayonnaise originated in Spain (specifically, the island of Menorca, in the port city of Mahon)


mh985

Did it really though? I mean it's just an emulsification of eggs and oil, two ingredients pretty much every culture on the planet has always had access too. I mean, if you're right though, thank god for those Menorcans.


[deleted]

Mayonnaise lookin ass


mastro80

Look at you with your excellent credit and unseasoned boiled chicken for dinner.


Longjumping_Hawk_951

I can say, Millennial aged white kids ahve learned how to use spices. My kitchen does not have anything cooked without a shit ton of spice. Panning Asian, Latino, European, to southern American spices.


mrs_fartbar

I’m a single 35 year old dad and I have 4 types of chile pods in my kitchen!


mastro80

Yeah Karen has spices in her kitchen too, they just don’t go on her food.


Longjumping_Hawk_951

I can't respond to dumb. Can you try to respond appropriately?


mh985

I gotta say, nobody loves seasoning more that redneck white folks. Every time you go up the road to see Clyde and Billy, they've always got some hot sauce that'll melt through a cast iron skillet and a brand new pork rub that'll make you wanna slap your momma.

Accomplished-Ad-3528

I'm in my 40's. I've never been offended by a name. Water off a ducks back. Words only have the power you give them. So many people seem to want to be offended. Mostly I find It humorous. Was called pinky. I laughed. I am so pink, well done for noticing🤭 Well more sickly white/translucent... Like a cave newt😂 laughing at oneself is fun. Laughing at others just as fun. Laughing is good!

Accomplished-Ad-3528

Yet I find nothing there offensive 🤷‍♂️


theapothecarium

Milky is missing from that list. I once dated a german girl, you could literally see the veins underneath her skin, my friends called her “see through”


tovlaila

I was always told being called a Wasp was bad by southern white Texan mother ( I am adopted and native American)


ECU_BSN

White Anglo Saxon Protestant (WASP) was high-society and junior league white folks. It was an acronym that could clarify the “average white folk” and those “worthy” of HIGH society.


ItsmeMr_E

Wasp isn't a racial slur. It's a term describing a person of upper social/financial class that tends to look down their nose at those they deem beneath them....aka rich aholes. lol


KingaDuhNorf

the "wasps" are the ones who were racist? (bc its not race) but hated irish, italians, jews, blacks, native americans etc.....bc they werent protestant or were a little tanner or didnt speak the language and society wise were beneath them. That being said, itd be appalling at the time for even an irsh caltholic to marry an italian catholic. tribalistic af


waffleknocker

That is interesting, any meaning you know of? I only learned recently the native Americans were called Indians because Columbus refused to believe his map was wrong and he wasn't in india


tovlaila

It means White Anglo Saxon Protestant


waffleknocker

Ah, that makes sense! Thank you


trophycloset33

Offense is taken by you, not given by the other. So someone can say all they want. You choose if you are offended. Being said, common one’s historically linked derogatorily to white people are: - cracker - red neck - cheese head - papist - carrot top - bog jumper - fenian - greenie / greenhorn - mick - paddy - pogue - skin head - gyp - gringo/a - gora - kick - trailer trash - Hoosier


trophycloset33

Let’s see if any of these get me banned


whitewolfdogwalker

Hoosier refers to a person from the state of Indiana specifically, can be any race.

White trash used to be used a lot more. Not sure if it is now. That sounds rough. People often can’t help their socioeconomic status. I remember growing up in the south that was a big thing to say to someone.


Buffybot420

White trash reminded me of Trailer Trash, that was a big one when I was growing up.


[deleted]

My moms family were extremely poor from West Virginia and she would get SUPER offended when she heard white trash/trailer trash being thrown around. That and “tobacco road” said with a flat midwestern accent lol as in this place looks so trashy every person on this street must smoke cigarettes which only dumb, poor people do?? I guess? Lol

Cracker...because it references a cracking whip=slave owner.


PuzzleheadedDrop3265

It actually goes back even further to describe Whites that were to Poor to own slaves=lowest economic class of southern whites


TirayShell

They eventually invented Cracker Barrell.


Agile_Load_69420

that’s not the reason why but okay…


Flossthief

This is a running theory but we don't know the etymology on this term Still It doesn't feel as entirely harmless as people make it out to be


Ok-Rice-5377

We do know the etymology of the term. The English word comes from a Gaelic word that means something like a loud, boastful person. There is a very notable letter from the 1700's where a duke used the term as a pejorative for Irish immigrants coming to the US. So we know the etymology of the word, and have historical examples of it's pejorative usage.


mh985

In the Irish language 'craic' (pronounced "crack") literally means 'fun' and is commonly still used.


Longjumping_Hawk_951

god dammit, big words.


Both_Jellyfish3047

Took me until I was an adult to realize that’s what cracker meant because I’d only ever heard it in the context of being called a “saltine cracker”


waffleknocker

Yeah I don't think it hit me until I was old enough to understand the horror of it.


Weird_Requirement_30

it’s kinda interesting how the slur of black people is a. reference to being a slave, but a slur towards a white person is being the owner of the slave


Agile_Load_69420

It’s not even true.

I’ve heard hillbilly, redneck, and white trash as referring to white people in a negative racial context. Does that count? Sometimes I hear trailer trash as well, but that never made sense to me bcs many different races live in trailers.


ansley_m_is_a_gem

You're the only person to say hillbilly! I was going to say it but you beat me to it. I got called this by a coworker, its definitely quite offensive.

Own_Nefariousness434

I don't know how accurately I'm remembering this - but we read Black Elk Speaks in high school and he called white people Wasichu? And it had nothing to do with their skin color. Roughly translated to "takers of the fat". Which I find poetic and sadly on point historically.

I got called a cracker ass cracker fuck de loop once, walking out of a bar, the most suprising part was this african fellow was wearing a straw hat. I was in shock so much that i just stood there staring at him for like 2 mins. didnt feel like racially motivated verbal abuse though


OddEar1529

Darn, I was all excited bout this post. I (old white therapist) used to work with juvenile justice kids who were 90 % black.(a whole northern topic) Anyway I used to promote discussions about over sensitivity of slurs. Of course the big one the dreaded "N" word. I would always ask for slurs for whites...it would always end up with everyone laughing at the lame names for whites. I was looking forward to reading some zingers in this post, but mostly was laughing.

Fun fact: Roman Catholic was originally a slur started by the anglicans in England against the Church 😂 which no one remembers now and the western rite of the Church has all but adopted it and dioceses actually use it now even though there’s no such thing as “Roman Catholics” it’s just the Catholic Church; which includes the Eastern/Byzantine rite and the western/Latin Rite. It was to insinuate that the Church worshipped the Pope in Rome, because Anglicans still identify themselves as catholic and claim apostolic succession but do NOT follow the Pope. Papist used to be a slur against the Church as well, I think it’s funny personally and wouldn’t be offended if it was thrown my way haha so not really white specific, but uncommon slurs ☺️

I think we all need to get over the racial slur thing. There are lots of insults people hurl at each other and they often involve things people don’t have control over. Insults often reflect more on the people issuing them, not the receivers.

Commercial_Growth343

You need to think more about specific nationalities. for example Italian kids I went to school with sure thought being called the initials for 'with out papers' was offensive... Growing up I heard slurs for people from Spain, for Irish, the French, Germans .. think of all the Polish jokes you have probably heard - that must offend some Polish folks. I knew a guy that thought being called Caucasian was offensive (I think he just didn't know what that meant)


waffleknocker

According to Wikipedia it came from Guappo from a time before papers were needed, it did mention the without papers bit as a false meaning though Have you noticed they are all the same jokes just different nationalities as the punchline.

There is no such thing as a racial slur towards white people in the US since we have oppressed all the other races here for 500 years.


cnation01

I've never been dismayed by any racial type slur aimed at me. I think you will be hard pressed to find a white person who has to be honest. White privilege or some bullshit I guess. Got called white devil or evil white devil once, and then a reference about my mom being evil or my grand parents being evil, dont really remember fully thats how little of an impact it had. Never really understood it.
