Talk:Nappy Headed Ho

I think rather than deleting this phrase as a Wikipedia topic that will forever be part of our vernacular, perhaps we should ask ourselves who created this language, who profits from it and who continues to promote it. Don Imus was just trying to be hip and appeal to a younger audience. If you don't want to hear women referred to as ho's then then turn off your MTV, VH1 and just about any top 40 or hip hop radio station. At least Don Imus is promoting womens sports which is more than the gansta mentality has ever done to promote women. There are already 279,000 occurences of "nappy headded ho's" indexed in Google. I say keep it as a Wikipedia topic so we can attribute true authorship of this phrase to its roots. Also, isn't there enough censorship in the U.S.?

Good call. I was considering that myself. And deleting or otherwise dealing with phrases that are linked to one person is not censorship, it's following guidelines like WP:NEO. Tony Fox (arf!) 18:56, 13 April 2007 (UTC)
