First of all, I would like to state that asking for black coffee is not racists. Though this seems a little out of hand for the coffee shop. I would question the motives behind it.
Secondly, I'll talk about myself. I lived in Ohio for about three years. I've heard black people called coloured, from a white person. That I considered racist. I have said racist comments myself. I've said the 'N' word to a black person, and that guy, laughed at me and couldn't believe I said that. He said that it was funny because I AM NOT a racist person, and that he felt that being PC is stupid. So, I try to be considerate towards people.
And lastly, when does speech because a sexist issue? Should the french be punish because they have separate words for femenine and masculine words? Or should we be punished because we don't? Its just gotten way out of line where people are offended by the smallest things.
I don't like to be called boy, but do you see me trying to change the education system because I find it offensive? No, because thats just dumb. I'm also offended by people not giving me the respect I deserve, should I make it law, so that I get the respect I deserve. No, because thats idiotic.
Three things I hate:
1) Idiocy
2) Immaturity
3) Ignorance.
