Okay, so I wanted to dig into this whole “slurs that start with R” thing. It’s a sensitive topic, and I felt like I needed to understand it better, not just for myself but to maybe help others understand too.

First, I started by just trying to list out any words I could think of that fit the bill. Honestly, my mind went blank at first. It’s like when someone puts you on the spot, you know?

Then, I hit up some online dictionaries and, well, just started searching. I typed in “words starting with R” and scrolled through, looking for anything that seemed offensive or derogatory. I also used some specific search terms related to slurs and hate speech, but I won’t repeat those here.

  • It was uncomfortable, I’m not gonna lie.
  • Some of the words I found, I’d never even heard before.
  • Seeing the definitions and the history behind some of these words was… heavy.

I started to categorize them, too, I don’t even have the words to express, I realized that it’s not enough to just know the words; it is very important to understand why they’re harmful.

I spent a good few hours on this, and to be honest, I felt pretty drained afterward. It’s not exactly light reading, you know? But I do think it was important for me to do. I feel like I have a much better grasp on the topic now, even if it’s still a difficult one.

I was reminded that words have power and can have hurtful meanings.
