We all know that there are still people who intentionally express bias and prejudice when speaking about members of groups; however, we can assume that most people wat to utse the most respectful terms.

All language envolves. One must also be mindful that people of any group do not think or feel the same way about identity words.
We should always remember that we never only one thing, but instead members of many groups.
