    Unless you have been on the receiving end of these types of insults it really is nigh on impossible for you to understand the damage these "little words" cause.

    It really is about how these words are perceived by the person they are aimed at and those around them and little or nothing to do with the intention of the speaker.

    As Bern has said these words have a history and a associated connotations that are about separating people out from the crowd, emphasising difference and "keeping them in their place"; whether it is ethnic origin, gender, sexuality, skin colour or religion.
