Keith brief Posted June 30, 2021 Share Posted June 30, 2021 So referring to a white person's skin colour in a derogatory way isn't racist? Goodness me..... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gammon is more a pinky red, not white. You need to educate yourself. You can't be racist against a white person. That just wouldn't make sense. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gammon isn't racial. Most white people aren't gammons. White people who get red in the face at the thought of not leaving the EU, or losing at football, or too many "foreigns" are gammons. You can't be racist against opinions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, it is supposed to refer to a middle aged, overweight, white male who has a tendency to flush with rage. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
