She said: "These are in-jokes and ways that many people in the queer feminist community express ourselves - it's a way of reclaiming the power from the trauma many of us experience as queers, women, people of colour, who are on the receiving end of racism, misogyny and homophobia daily." So it's OK for her to use the word "queers"

And I expect that applies to homophobic as well

So it's OK for her to use the word "queers" Yes, because she is gay.

So it's OK for her to use the word "queers" I would bet a pound to a shiny penny that if you pressed her to name one instance of where she has been on the receiving end because of race, gender or sexuality today, yesterday, last Tuesday, 23rd Auguest 2012 or any other date you care to mention she couldn't name one... She's simply a trappy, up her own arse bint seeking victimhood by whatever means possible.

And I expect that applies to homophobic as well It is, although she's paraphrasing Johnson 1997, who made an valid argument that given the historical context of oppression of minority groups, they should be considered somewhat more valid in their prejudice of the majority - having been on the receiving end. Of course, Johnson was referring to a generation that grew up in the 70s and 80s, and before (and in the USA) - when concepts such as **** Bashing and gay bashing were considered acceptable past times. Johnson believed that we should forgive such prejudice against the majority - and that as such, talking about such prejudice was a means of deflecting by those who provided tacit support of prejudice, away from the true argument, the experience of prejudice of those minority groups (which was often violent, physical, persistant and socially exclusive). Of course Johnson also believed such prejudice was wrong, but understandable, given the society of the times. Certainly not all factions agreed. Chuck D of Public Enemy openly criticized the use of the phrase nigga by rappers arguing that it reduced the struggle of anti-racism, by creating a stereotype that was ultimately an anti-black propaganda. Of course if you're actually attending university, which has actively recruited you as a spokesperson and advocate for a minority group, and funded that position - You do have to question just exactly how oppressed you are. But there are still plenty of very stupid narrow minded bigots out there. Sadly, they exist on both sides of the fence.

She's simply a trappy, up her own arse bint seeking victimhood by whatever means possible. She probably has. My best friend is Asian, and has experienced threats and abuse on the basis of skin colour (which has only increased since he married a white girl). Similarly I've got female friends who've been harassed by men even after they've made it clear they're not interested and a gay friend who's experience includes being beaten up for being gay on a number of occasions (specifically for being gay). This kind of s**t still goes on, it might not be condoned by the majority, and is probably the work of a minority of stupid, probably young, t***s who think its funny or a laugh (or just don't realize it).

In Zimbabwe, for instance, is it impossible for a white person to be racist? And what about South Africa, where foreign business owners are currently being attacked (black on black) - I realise that's more xenophobic than racist, but some of it can be tribal (not sure if that constitutes a race)

It takes some doing to be more oppressive and unfair to a section of your populace than the old South African apartheid system
