Exactly. Also, call me “woke” but I wouldn’t even use the word mongrel (even if it is to describe a dog) as it is also used by racists to describe people who are mixed-raced. It’s 2023, people use the term “mixed-breed” to describe dogs. Any word that has prejudice connotations to it isn’t accepted by most people in 2023.
so true......if anything you would say "Mutt" which is used a lot to mean not a particular breed, or a purebred that mated with a non-purebreed.
mongrel is derogatory, PERIOD
If she had said the full word instead of that slang she's pretending means that, it would be so weird......"i look like a mongrel" like wtf????? who says that either?
