lol, my mistake - which kind of proves your point :D Personally I don't like the phrase, what the **** is it supposed to mean - that all people in the world except white people have colour pigments in their skin? What a load of shit. White people are yellowy pink, so to suggest people of colour...
Fair enough. It's being mentioned in the media quite a lot, and you notice how black people refer to themselves as black, rather than coloured.
Since you now know, why are you still saying 'colour'? Do you mean 'nearly all my black friends' or 'nearly all my non white friends'?
By the way, I'm...
People have always been offended, but no one used to give a shit that others were offended.
A few decades ago!
It's not changing constantly, I have no idea how you didn't know that people don't like being referred to as 'coloured'.
