I don’t know how it was started. I do think that it only can hurt your feelings if you let it. Like any other curse word. I’ve heard some black people say that any variation of nigger is bad. I’ve also heard that it’s okay if you say nigga but not niggER. The sound of it. ‘What’s up nigga? What’s up nigger’ It does sound different. I still don’t feel comfortable saying it around black people without discussing it with them first – and even then I still don’t say it unless I feel very close to them and nobody else is around.
