If it is going to potentially make people feel bad - I will try not to use a word. Its a word - I will survive not using it. It may slip out if its a word I used a lot - like this 'r' word - it slipped out when it first became an issue but being an intelligent being I've adapted and now I don't use it.
Now if someone said walking on two feet was offensive to amputees and we should all hop around on one foot - I would protest and complain. But I'm willing to do the bare minimum (i.e. not have my dog pee on the lawn of the weird lawn guys) to make others lives a little better.
In conclusion - I'm a great guy and you should all look up to me.
