No Offense, But…
It seems that BBC Radio 1 has edited the only truly realistic Christmas song “the Fairy Tale of New York” to remove the term “faggot” just in case people are offended by it.
Now much as I don’t want to become one of those Daily Mail “it’s political correctness gone mad” types, I can’t help but feel it’s a bit ridiculous in this case.
(And in any case, surely terms of abuse are supposed to be offensive? If they weren’t there wouldn’t be much point in them would there?)
