I'm of the opinion that people ought to evaluate if their skin is really that thin.
If you go back far enough I think that every group be it by gender, nationality, religious persuasion, whatever, has perpetrated bad things and has had bad things perpetrated upon them. Well I can't do anything about what my ancestors may or may not have done. Actually I choose not to do anything about it, as I've not been the cause of the thing any current "aggrieved" complain of. Whether or not I'm a beneficiary of some past injustice is debateable.
Besides as far as "names" go, whether they are derogatory or not resides pretty much in the mind of the recipient, and even within the same recipient they will decide the same term can be either derogatory or not depending on a million nuances.
