Arse vs. ass

"Arse" is a British Slang term that refers to a "stupid person" however it could also be used as a synonym for "ass". This is the source of confusion, since both are based upon horses as a species of animal. "Ass" is the correct name for a donkey in the USA.

The word arse originated as an innocuous term for Old the body part but has since evolved into an unpopular term. "Ass" was an alternative to the arse term in the 19th century. It was originally a term used to describe an animal that resembled horses, but in the 1860s it was transformed into an expression of an a posterior. It is also used in the expression 'to arse around'. 'Ass' is also used in the phrase "to make an ass out of oneself as an association with 'to talk about'. However, there are many threads of meaning from arse that do not appear in the word "ass".

Appropriateness in popular culture

There are many instances where a dominant cultural group adopts elements from the culture of a minority group. This practice, known as cultural appropriation can result in feelings of disrespect from members of minority groups. It doesn't matter if you wear the traditional Native American headdress at a music festival or wearing blackface for Halloween, many Black people feel that this is an act of patronizing.

A dominant group may also adopt elements of minority cultures. However, they could also make use of intellectual property belonging to the minority group. This can be done by blackfishing for instance. It is important to keep in mind that people of colored skin have a history of being marginalized and disenfranchised. Think about, for instance the history of people of color being marginalized when you see someone in the blackface Halloween costume.
