Advocates for the mentally disabled are calling for a complete end to the use of the word "retarded" in both casual and clinical contexts, saying that it is offensive and derogatory.
"Retarded" was itself introduced in the 1950s as a polite replacement for words like "idiot" and "moron", which had been deemed too offensive for continued use in clinical settings.
Likely candidates to replace "retarded" include "special" and "challenged". Linguistics experts project that those words, in turn, will become unspeakably rude within about 30 years.
At this rate, experts say that as much as 40% of English vocabulary could be unusable in polite conversation within a few centuries, unless a language recycling program is implemented.
Activists have as yet given no insight into how they plan to stop teenage boys, the most frequent users of the "r-word", from insulting one another by drawing comparisons to mentally deficient people.
As a former teenage boy myself, I'd like to suggest "mind control drugs in the water supply" as the most plausible method.
