I've said this before, but I feel like every major thread made here lately has descended into a shitshow of epic proportions.
Personally, I think in-character sexism and racism is okay because, after all, it's roleplay - the whole point is that you play a character that is entirely different to yourself. It's fictional. Just because you're roleplaying as a racist, doesn't necessarily mean you are one in real life. That's like telling me that I can't roleplay as an Indian man because I myself am not Indian nor a man. (That second bit is up for debate but that's irrelevant to my point.)
Hatred and violence is a trait inherent in our species. Yes, it's wrong and we'd all be better off without such a trait, but like it or not, it's there and it will be there for centuries to come. Not to mention that CityRP is focused on staying true to real life, so while it's here we might as well let it into the party and just make sure it doesn't break anything.
Anyway, the rules specifically state that you shouldn't overdo it or carry it over to OOC. So there's that. Bottom line is, all y'all whining about wanting in-character hatred removed from the server need to grow up and understand that life is not all peaches and daisies. In other words, stop being such whiny babies.
