    Default "White trash" :/

    I'm not being racist or anything Mod's. Besides, why the hell would white trash be racist to us whites?

    Ok I've just been called white trash by some indians that live near my asda. We all just laughed. But basically where did they get the term "white trash" from and why should white people find it offensive? I'm white and to me it's just like a childish way of calling another skin colour (although it's not something you would expect a small child to say). Like racist white people may call other races things that are offensive, excluding the shorter version of pakistan because that's just nonsense too. But then they have this hideous come back which could easily be turned around by saying another skin colour with trash after it. I'm sorry if anyone does find anything that I have said offensive but I am honestly not saying it in a racist way at all.

    we call ourselves brits nd so do they, it can jus be seen as impolite if a foreigner calls us brits, but no racist. Same (imo) goes for calling them ****'s tbh.

    well its an ethnic slur used against someone to cause offense as its usually used in a derogatory manner. the P word, if used in a negative context could be deemed racist as that person using it aims to cause offense based upon the receivers ethnicity and thus discriminating that said person.

    It's an American phrase coined by white Americans. It's something that was made for white Americans to call other white Americans who were anti-social. The British alternative would be chavs.
