In the last two day, while debating with some about the tactics the Food Babe and her army use, I’ve been told that I am the r-word or that my questions are r-word-ed.
For the adults out there who can’t seem to get it, here is the definitive list of when it’s okay to use the r-word when trying to insult somebody or make a point:
1. Never
I hope that clears things up for the many of you who still think it’s okay to use that language.
English is a rich, full language, with countless ways to describe, make points, even insult without using the r-word. When you do use that word, you hurt people, intentionally or not, because you make it just a little more okay to make fun of people or insult people at the expense of those who may be intellectually challenged. Stooping to that level, even in anger or frustration, reveals something about yourself, your empathy, your lack of creativity, your lack of humanity.

#TRUTH I had a feeling when I saw the title this was going to be a similar format to your “when is it logical to do a juice cleanse?” post 🙂
Yesterday, I sat and listened to my hair dresser tell a little 6 year old boy that it was “never ok to say hate.” That the word hate was a strong word and hurt peoples feelings…. She proceeded to then use the R word in our conversation 30 min later… with my brain injured child sitting in his wheelchair listening to her ugliness…. I WISH I had the courage to have spoken up. I was debating walking out with dye in my hair and my cut half finished… It is unbelievable to me how many adults think that word is ok to use. After reading this I decided to send her a text explaining why she lost a long time client.
I can believe adults in this day and age still use this word! My five year old son over heard an adult say this at the grocery store and told me “mommy that is not a nice word.” If my five year old knows better than adults should too!!
Cant*** believe
