Told the girlfriend that Mum is deaf so speak loud and slow. Told Mum that the girlfriend is retarded.
What in the world? Is this supposed to be a joke?
I only made fun of my girlfriend. She is not mentally disabled.
Using a mental disability as an insult is harmful to the actual people with those disabilities. Insults of these nature imply that its wrong to be someone with these kind of disabilities. These people have a difficult enough time with their conditions and mocking them by saying their not wanted is just further harm brought upon them.
Whatever, I think I hate my girlfriend now. She's not as good as my mom.
Just because you dislike her doesn't mean you should use that word. Try saying something else instead.
