RickawayJE's blog: "From me."

created on 02/07/2011  |  http://fubar.com/from-me/b339367

Here’s my question before the new year. 
Why are Self-degrading terms being used as a way to describe yourself in a good way? 
Terms like “bitch” “slut” “nigger”(or Nigga/h as it may be used) “ho” and various other terms such as these that I cannot remember right now. 
How is it supposed to be a GOOD thing to refer to yourself with these? 
Bitch = (vulgar, derogatory) Term of contempt applied to a woman, conveying a judgement that she or her behavior are despicable, disagreeable, etc. [from the 15th c] 
Slut = (countable, derogatory) a sexually promiscuous woman. 
(countable) a prostitute. 
(countable, derogatory) a slovenly, untidy person, usually a woman. 

Nigger(and variations thereof) = 
(slang, often considered offensive) A person of Negro descent who acts in an unapproved manner 
"Nigger" has taken on pejorative qualities, as it implies not only darkness of skin, but a general lack of intelligence and sophistication. At the time of the word's origin, various English-speaking North American settlers who set cultural standards considered black people fundamentally inferior and less civilized than white people. The term is generally considered offensive to black people, not only because it singles them out on the basis of their skin colour, but also because, due to its origin, it carries connotations of slavery, inferiority and oppression. 
I personally do not understand why folk use these words, and others like them, to reference themselves in a seemingly positive manner. Conversely to you using these words to describe yourself in a “Good” way… you get angry when someone else calls you them? How is that supposed to work?
