Cultural Appropriation Does NOT Just Apply To Native Americans

golden-zephyr:

.. and I’d really like all you white people who keep telling me IT DOES, to quit.

Stop wearing gypsy fortune teller costumes for Halloween.

Stop tagging feather earrings as gypsy.

Stop “wanting to live like a gypsy”.

Stop thinking we all tell fortunes, have magik sex appeal, and steal babies.

Stop getting those weird and rather sick “gypsy head” tattoos.

In fact, just stop using the word “gypsy” at all.

kthnx bai.

I think people should also realize that using the word “gypped” is offensive to gypsies as well. I bet a lot of people don’t even realize that’s how it’s spelled or what it truly means.
