Airto BS: Political Correctness (102* d) RE: BS: Political Correctness 20 Sep 00

I felt I needed some clarification, McGrath, because I'd noticed some people vowing in this and other current threads to stop using the terms traveller and gypsy on the grounds that they cause offence.

Would you agree that, when used with precision, these terms are not in themselves derogatory, and are in fact useful? And that there's no need for people to ditch them?
