I start with "Brainstorm". This has been added to the list of politically incorrect words because epileptic people don't like this word used to describe a mindmap.
A friend of mine was recently incredibly hesitant at describing a man as black, so as I'd know who the man was. He was afraid to be classed as a racist.
"Bum" has been replaced by "Homeless person" and "Foreign food" by "Ethnic cuisine". It's now wrong to utter the word "Criminal", the correct term is "An Unsavoury Character"! A "Sex change" must technically be called a "Gender reassignment".
Other words that we're not allowed, or simply to afraid, to use include:
Rubbish man, Ghetto, Crazy, Housewife, Immigrants, Midget, Fairy, Poof, Camp and Prostitute.
As mentioned previously, the words "Black" and "White" are quickly becoming unacceptable, which will make it very difficult for coffee loving PC citizens. Even the American "Founding Fathers" have been renamed to just "The founders", for sexism reasons.
Politcal correctness has gone mad! Soon we'll have to say "Visually challenged" instead of "Ugly" and "Follicularly Challenge" instead of "Bald". Forget using the term "Fat" because "Differently weighted" is much less offensive apparently.
For your information, I'm a religiously minded person of English decent who works as a Kitchen Hygeine Officer. Quite catchy, isn't it? Sort of... Rolls off the toungue. Much easier than White Christian dish pig.
