Just as blacks have the priveledge to use the "n" word. Like I use it once in a while to describe the town and economy I live in, especially when I'm frustrated (white trash) or to describe Britney Spears.

I don't view myself as white trash though.

I made a mistake of jokingly labeled myself "Poor white trash" several years ago and I got jumped by a couple of blacks that over heard me for "Making a racist statement" even though I was jokingly referring to myself and made no reference to another race at all.
Yea, you should be allowed but just be careful because you don't know who might over hear you calling yourself that and assume that you are calling them "Trash."

i think that the two words are incorrect. although, I even have witnessed a great type of cases, that once it consists of racism, by utilising default, the racists are purely the white human beings. certainly that , racism is a 2 way highway. some whites do unlike blacks for the colour of their epidermis. isn't the choice genuine as nicely? the unhappy issues is that if a black guy or woman complains that somebody referred to as them the n-be conscious -- oh, mamma mia-- a risky sin. on the different hand, blacks can call a white guy or woman regardless of they elect and it does not propose something in this society. at some point, in line with possibility at some point the race won't remember, yet till this entire element is seen in such an unfair way, it is going to.

Yup. I was raised in a trailer park in TX. I'm proud to be southern white trash;)

I had a professor who referred to himself as PWT - poor white trash. I think it's adorable when a girl does it.
I kind of adore poor Southern white women. Once in a while.

If your just poor you can, cause there's nothing wrong with being poor,it's not your fault, blacks use the n-word cause they all are the n-word.

well you clearly know that it might be interpreted as offensive and you choose to do it anyway. i wouldn't because it's a label and stereotype. but you can always make that choice. i don't recommend using labels.

i knew a white girl who joked about the "cracker" thing, and she was calling her friends crackers and they almost fought. so watch who you say it around i guess
