Re: Would you call a Native American "redskin" to their face?
Except that I don't. I just gave a list of many situations that the word could be considered acceptable. I'm quite sure that joking around with friends isn't a "laundry list of stipulations". The fact that I gave a list just shows that there are tons of situations in which it could be acceptable. Should I also provide a list in which its not acceptable? Would that satisfy you on that part or would that "speak volumes" also?
I actually do find your answer satisfactory. The fact that you need a laundry list of stipulations for 'redskin' to be socially acceptable speaks volumes.
