[nagdu] Growing Up Fisher

[Nicole Torcolini]

Even though this is kind of getting away from guide dogs, I think that this
is very important. We have specific rules about this where I work. If you
belong to some subset of society , whether it's religion, ethnicity,
disability, or what have you, you are not allowed to use terms within that
group if you expect the rest of the world to not use them.

Well there you go.  It has been my experience that no group likes anyone
else making fun of them or even using language they use.

It is a puzzlement. 


Best,

I'm the same way. The issue though stems from the fact that blind people
can't stand to be made fun of by anybody but themselves. I find this
extremely frustrating because I like to make fun of everything.
Society as a whole is way too serious.
