Yes France has gone loopy, I think it's time Little Napoleon was sent to the Louvre or face the guillotine.

Somebody identified themself as a person of colour the other day, and I asked "so which person is colourless, do tell?" Discrimination disguised under the garb of being "political correct."
Maybe, but that doesn't make them colourless. People need to stop creating "definitions" based off of a false premise.He should have told you to google it.

Maybe but it was you who raised the question. It's obvious that the second term is result of the existence of the first description that you decided to challenge as if you didn't know why the other person referred himself as such.Maybe, but that doesn't make them colourless.

It seems to be an American thing, I'm not American so why would I go back and change it?The problem with the colourless being those with "less pigmentation" is that it implies that that's the natural/primary state and then colour is added to create a new state.

If you do not like the term people of color, you need to get in to a time machine to tell the ones who coined that instead of getting in face of other people.

Out of curiosity what would a Chinese(pale) be classified as?
I'm from the UK and I assure you we don't use coloured. When we say colour it applies to all whether white, pink, brown, yellow, black. It doesn't make the slightest bit of difference to us which is why we would never use colourless as an antonym.You must be registered for see links
Colored is an ethnic descriptor historically used in the United States and the United Kingdom. In the US, the term initially denoted non-"You must be registered for see links" individuals generally. The meaning was essentially the same in the UK, with "coloured" thus equivalent to "You must be registered for see links" and is well known in it's colonies in Africa or Asia etc.
Where are you from?
. The English speaking people and country UK coined the term coloured, & someone made up the term colourless as antonym in the same spirit. Nothing more to it.
It's a disturbing trend, if those offended don't possess within their genes the ability have kids(male with male, female with female etc) then they shouldn't. The nuclear biological household structure or identification process shouldn't be changed just to make them feel wanted.it's a ultra minority and they want to piss off the whole of France with this garbage.
this is offensive/insulting to the majority of families.
Scratch parent 1 and 2 and write father mother. It's simple like that.
This is the stupidest sh*t I've ever seen. Gender dysphoria is a mental sickness and should be treated as such. The same goes for all dysphorias. Being dissatisfied with your gender, race, age, etc, is one thing, but actively trying to change, such as undergoing *** reassignment surgery, is another matter entirely."A large majority of people that have been pregnant or have given birth identify as women.

Of course " coloured is archaic and now replaced with " people/person of colour". But you forget that this conversation started when you asked someone "who is colourless then".

It doesn't make the slightest bit of difference to us which is why we would never use colourless as an antonym.
They may have used it in the early days to describe black people, post slavery, but we don't use it.

Then you took offence that someone defined that, to which I pointed that it was result of the phrase "people of colour".

Besides articles like thisYou must be registered for see linkstell that the phrase is in use in UK.
Right now you are just chasing your own tail, you know. & You walked right in to it.
If you had a point back there, you need to use a different approach.
You just registered and use strong words? What for?Jesus, we get it, Avani. Calm the f*ck down.
Nope. It's no one's right to use them.1. Swear words =/= Strong words.
