I have never seen a problem with that. My sis, who lives outside Philly has friends who call themselves this.

Sheesh! That calls for the death penalty!

If all my Jewish friends never used those words, I'd never known what they meant!They all went further and just abrieviated JAP! That was when I inquired what that stood for and they laughingly used all the words.

I still didn't understand until they described it and pointed out who was one.

From Wikipedia:

Jewish-American Princess

"The stereotype of the Jewish-American Princess is a pejorative stereotype of a subtype of Jewish-American female. The term implies materialism and selfishness, attributed to a pampered or wealthy background. ...

"The stereotypical subject, as described in these sources, is over-indulged by her parents with attention and money, resulting in the princess having both unrealistic expectations and guilt, accompanied by skill in the manipulation of guilt in others, resulting in a deficient love life. The stereotype has been described as "a sexually repressive, self-centered, materialistic and lazy female," who is "spoiled, overly-concerned with appearance, and indifferent to sex", the last being her most notable trait. The stereotype also portrays relationships with weak men that are easily controlled and are willing to spend large amounts of money and energy to recreate the dynamic she had during her upbringing. These men tend to be completely content with catering to her endless needs for food, material possessions, and attention."

"The stereotype is often, though not always, the basis for jokes both inside and outside the Jewish community. Frank Zappa was accused of antisemitism for his song "Jewish Princess", a charge which he repeatedly denied on the basis that he did not invent the concept and that women who fit the stereotype existed."

That’s not much of a slur. It’s a synonym for “spoiled brat.”

Good grief. I recall a Jewish friend referring to someone as a "JAP." When I asked her what that meant, she said, "Jewish American Princess." I guess it's like the N word. Only Blacks can use it without being criticized.
