there are policies that are followed in any establishment. they would have to be within the law, the example you state would be considered hostile in a work environment and therefore wouldn’t be allowed.

Yes you would, except that would probably be a civil right action on the part of the addressee, not you.
What if you are in a play that uses that word? It is a 100% legitimate demand.

As long as the rules apply to everyone, an employer has vast control of behaviors on his/her property and/or when you are acting as an employee.
All employment is voluntary on both parties.
