Gypsy is a much more complex word than people think. I don’t consider it a slur, most Gypsies don’t. Most Americans don’t know who Romani people are either so it’d usually necessary to say
I’ve answered this before if you wanna scroll through my comments for a more detailed reply but yes. Also inb4 you say it, this does not mean I think men can say bitch. Gypsy is not a slur and so it’s more complex
I hate the comparison of Gypsy to the N word tbh it always feels undermining antiblackness to me. Many of us call ourselves Gypsy and Gypsy is not usually used as an insult. Other words for us are bad like tsigane or cigani. Some of those literally mean “slave”
I’m Romani Gypsy…
Oh no... I thought it was a slur.
