I'm unsure if you're the same reader who commented this before but as I mentioned before l am not using it as a Slur or anything of that sort so please don't think l am in anyway using it as such (not saying you are) but the only reason to why its like that is solely because that's what
Esmeralda identifies as and is known as a "gypsy," its literally just a play on that term. Nothing else nothing more. I would greatly appreciate if you don't try to associate my books with anything as such.

@mikotheiddiot she calls herself that in the movie as well, I solely just go based on that. I understand you don't have any intentions behind your words and greatly appreciate it but it was just how you commented on my board and it made the assumption I was using it as the slur which is definitely not the case. I know firsthand when it comes to racism and would never allow such in my books. I always have my books for every body size, race and etc to know everyone is welcomed and loved.

There's no I'll intent behind my words I'm just trying to get the information out there because a lot of people don't even know the term is offensive, so no hard feelings

@-EROSU Esemralda is identified in such a way by people around in a derogatory manner, she's a stereotype of romani people, please don't get me wrong and assume I'm calling you racist, I'm just explaining that the terminology used is outdated and offensive, so it doesn't really matter if it's being used as a slur or not, the decision to keep to book up is ultimately yours, I just wanted to let you know, and thank you for responding to me!
