Quick PSA about Doe

I know no one has done this, but I just wanted to make something clear and make sure people understand this.

When talking about Doe, please for the love of god, do not refer to her as a “gypsy”. It’s actually a slur used against the Romani people that has a very long history of being used as a derogatory term.

Yes, I know there are some groups of Romani people who have reclaimed the word, but for the most part, and respecting other Romani people’s wishes, just don’t use it when asking me questions about her or just talking about her.

Also, there’s no reason for any one to be making anti-Romani jokes about her. I really do not tolerate that stuff and it’s also really unfair to me who has a deep respect for the Romani people.

Thank you and hope you understand this! 🫶
