There
are some people who may not know how hurtful that word is. I hate saying that
word, I hate hearing or seeing that word, I just hate that word. I’ve been
called that word so many times and it hurts. I have had friends who have been
called that word. Some people may not know how hurtful that can be. Okay, I’m
gonna make a few people mad, but you know what, to those who would be mad at me
for this, you don’t know how hurtful this word can be. There’s this saying,
sticks and stones may break my bones but words can never hurt me. That’s not
true. Words do hurt. By the way, it doesn’t matter how you use it, I know what
you mean when you use that word, but it is still offensive. It is just as offensive
as using a racial slur.

want to encourage you to click the link above and understand why this word is
so hurtful. Here are a couple of news articles that were included in the link

The
first link I provided also includes a few videos explaining the R word and why
we should not use that word. I hope that someone would learn something from
this post.
Until
next time, God Bless.
