Thanks Mani. It's about time people stopped speaking on behalf of others and telling us what offends other people.

There seems to be a bit of an assumption that acknowledging differences makes one racist. (Not that religion has anything to do with race anyway.) I just don't get it. If I discovered a really good shampoo or conditioner with something in it like chamomile to keep light hair bright and shiny I might well post "for all you blonds out there" - would that make me blondist?

I don't know about anybody else but all this tiptoeing around not offending people comes over as rather offensive in itself because it is getting racial distinctions out of proportion instead of regarding people as people and individuals as individuals.
