Nowadays, ANY term or word can be deemed "inappropriate." But how is that fair to society? Today, you don't want them called backward, in a few years, you will no longer want them called challenged. Where does it really stop? We as a people have to be able to communicate, but when people start trying to infringe on free speech by dictating what a person can or cannot be called, it seriously hampers this societies ability to communicate.
As callous as it might sound, we should all learn to get over the cruel and callous things people say about us, or what they call us. It toughens us, and prepares us for life in general. If we have people going around "sanitising life for our protection" are we really living life?
