What is curious to me is that the people who come up with these things

Think for a minute: What possible unsavoury connotation can Eskimo

It's a little like that to me - socially grossly insulting term:
Afro-American.
How can being described as "black" be negative? Why is that a
perjorative but "white or whitey " not?
