LOVIN GENERATIONSS

Two Girls Check Their Mom’s Slur and the Internet’s Talking

  • A recent family video has sparked a huge conversation online after two young girls didn’t let their mother’s casual use of an old slur slide.

  • In the clip, the mother is filming her daughters when she jokes that one of them sat in the sun for so long she looked darker — using an Arabic slur the girls called the ā€œZ word.ā€

  • The girls immediately shut it down. They told their mom it’s a slur, comparing it to the N-word, and explained that using it is offensive and implies looking down on people for their skin color.

    Generations Clash

  • The mother, clearly surprised, brushed it off at first. She argued that when she was younger, everyone used the word casually without thinking twice.

  • But her daughters stood their ground.

  • They reminded her that times have changed and that what once passed as a harmless word is now widely recognized as hurtful and racist.

  • One of the girls even pointed out that saying it in public could land someone in serious trouble — or even in jail in certain places.


    Social Media Reacts

  • The video quickly spread online and people were divided.

  • Many users praised the girls for their awareness, calling them smart, outspoken, and proof that today’s generation is more mindful about racism and language.

  • On the other hand, some viewers felt more sympathy for the mother’s perspective.

  • They said they grew up hearing the same word in everyday life and argued that this concept is mostly a Western idea being forced on older generations.
