is "jewboy" a racial slur?

i thought it was "kike"

me and Beni were pretty close, he was from Tel Aviv

jewboy can be viewed as a slur just like how in the 50s and earlier times when southern folks would call black people "boy"

if someone is a man and you call them a boy yes it's being derogatory.

ic - well he is a man but he usually behaved as a boy would

I do too. I'm a man but sometimes I act like a big kid that's why I get along with kids in general but that doesn't mean I wanted to be called a boy.

no idea it was derogatory

i just heard it in a Lou Reed song, I thought it was an affectionate term

oh yeah, if Lou Reed was singing about it. he was definitely talking about how it was used in the bad way around his decade.

Jews tend to be pretty cool with calling them whatever. My best friend's Jewish and I called him pretty much anything but "kike" and he called me just about any Irish joke he could think of. So calling a Jewish friend "jewboy" is not necessarily racist.

i've never called him that to his face

i did call him "yahudi" which is a Malay slur for a jew

yeah but anecdotes don't mean that everyone is cool with it.

Boozin! let's ramble. So that work can finish up quicker.
