Here's a rule: only Blacks are allowed to use the word
"nigger"*, likewise for
"girls", etc.
Except for the NY City ballet. There all females are girls and all males
are boys. This tradition was in use under Mr. B (Balanchine) and I suspect
is still in use. I don't know if it is also the rule in other dance troups.
