I guess I'm ignorant, but why is a Golliwog racist? What is wrong with being black?

It's all about perpetuation of racial stereotypes.
Similarly, Barbie dolls are offensive for portraying a caricature of an overly busty skinny chick.

Isn't EVERY doll you can buy, whatever colour, a stereotype of one sort or the other?

Baby Born, Bratz, GI Joe. They're all stereotypes.

Of course what really **sses me off is that discontinuing Golliwog biscuits means there is no suitable substitute for making a chocolate log, bricks and mortar cake. The Choc Ripple biscuits just don't produce the same result.

So, now skinny girls with large breasts have to feel inferior, as well as black people. Why do we have to keep putting all these different people down? Does everything have to be 'average', doesn't that marginalise everyone who isn't average and make them out to be a freak?

I really don't get it, I guess I don't think in a discriminatory way enough to understand it. I'm probably too young, or too old, or my parents were too free thinking.

When I was at school, everyone thought the black dude with the dreadlocks was cool.

Political correctness gone wrong!
The ballon had been flying for 20 years with no issues!
Was at a work event talking to an ex pat English man and Christmas is banned as new immigrants don't believe in it and take offence.

oopps sorry for any offense caused. I didn't mean to stereotype smiley yellow people there.

Hey Laurie, you better update your round face thingys before anyone takes offense at them.
