In general, when a black person uses it, it can be taken as a more endearing term (unless if used offensively, when it would be taken as such).  Whites, however, cannot usually get away with using the term at all unless if they're very close with a black friend who might take it in the more endearing form (although this is rather uncommon).  There is a reason why you don't see people like Eminem use the word "nigger" in his songs.

Chava Posted at 9:38 am on Nov. 20, 2008 Always mama16advice Posted at 9:36 am on Nov. 20, 2008 honestly its not ok. its a word with a surpressing history behind it. But in the world we live in now, anything goes but everything has rules behind it. smartlake Posted at 10:19 pm on Nov. 18, 2008 Well, if rappers use it liberally, so will I. firestar Posted at 6:31 pm on Nov. 15, 2008 CRACKER!!!! jakelong Posted at 5:46 pm on Nov. 15, 2008 Like everything else when the other person gave you the obvious permission I mean if you gave somebody  the permission to call= you a jackheaded dickwad then they can. Otherwise you got a right to be pissed at them. If blacks give each other the permission to call  themselves names then they can. If they didn't give it you then you can't. Nothing hard to get about that. Most recent 15 of 32 previous replies displayed.
