I knew someone would go down that path when I posted. Still worth asking.
Just trying to show we need to guard against sliding-down a very slippery slope. Where does it end? If the individual didn't/doesn't object to being called whatever, then nobody else should either. Heck, it's still ok for some blacks to call each each other a certain N-word. (Please don't tell me it isn't, as I hear it multiple times almost daily.)

all3, I was just joking, dude! I agree. If I want to be called honky and I am okay with people calling me that, who is anyone else to complain? If someone doesn't like calling me honky, they don't have to. They can call me ******* like everyone else. If African Americans want to call each other the N word and are okay with being called that, then who am I to say they shouldn't do that.
