[QUOTE="specweldtom, post: 371135, member: 2580"] Chas, I have only been around hard-working Cajun men, not women, and they have a lot of pride in being Coonasses. We were all Union Boilermakers and Boilermaker Weldors and became lifelong friends. It's how I learned Cajun french that can't be printed! If your reply is meant as a rebuke, I apologize for offending you or your wife. I have never thought of it or said it as a slur. Cajun friends of 50 years don't either. In context, I said, if I wasn't a redneck, I would have wanted to be a Coonass myself. Crap, Wikipedia probably thinks Redneck is a slur too. Tom [/QUOTE]
