'beaner'? how derogatory is that considered?

Eh, I'm the wrong person to ask. I think all racial slurs are funny and should be embraced.

I eat beans almost everyday (they're a healthy superfood and are great for putting on muscle) so I can't really be mad if somebody calls me a beaner. It's the truth!

I'm not hispanic, but I, too, am a beaner.

Before being embraced by the Chicano culture and Cheech & Chong, it was an ugly insult like spic for Italian heritage.

Now it is either a hilarious joke, a friendly inside raz, or almost prideful identifier.

I thought spics were also Hispanic? And Italians were “guineas” or guidos offensively.

If so I’ve been insulting my husband incorrectly

Lol!!! I think it was the conflation of the So EU latin origins thing that happened- with some areas of the US being more finely aware of the separate groups and thus tuning the insults

Nothing more derogatory than calling me a Democrat & assuming I’m liberal since I’m Hispanic.
