It is sometimes used pejoratively to refer to a non-Jew, but many see it as no more insulting than the term gentile."<br /><br />We clearly see it as no more insulting than "gentile".Zevhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16245679359526388191noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8706557382895216627.post-24278231461392215562017-07-18T07:35:30.287-04:002017-07-18T07:35:30.287-04:00Serious question: Why do you call non-Jews goys?

First off it's just her father who is Jewish (correctly reflected in her I and O score though).<br /><br />Second, while I'm not questioning the last name "Wretsky" in and of itself, I only found a couple of not very reliable sources saying her father is Jewish. He was a pipefitter in western Michigan, combine that with a name like Wretsky sounds a lot more likely Polish Catholic to me. But maybe I'm wrong.....Harryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03306591330416785263noreply@blogger.com
