Why "Buck" what does that mean?

[Mortimer]

I have a question, I dont know what it means, and would like to know.

What does "Buck" mean? Why is it associated with a black male? Like "Big Black Buck" or "Buck breaking"

 

[WinterBorn]

A "buck" is a male of several species, like deer, goats etc. It was used to describe blacks when they were livestock. Calling a black guy a "buck" is a major insult.

I have never heard it associated with black dudes. It's more of a Southern thing, because I've heard people being nicknamed Buck so many times, it was starting to get old.

Well, obviously this song is racist as fuck, but I’ve never heard of the word “buck” being used as a racial slur.

I’ve heard young guys (of any race) be called “young bucks”, usually in the context of them being young, strong, cocky and showing off or itching for a fight.

There was plenty of racial slurs in the song, but I don’t think “buck” was one of them.

A gentle reminder to our international members (and guests): Never (NEVER!) use the word "buck" in the presence of an African American male.

If you do, you may find yourself lying flat on the floor.

He is a male, black or white and in between.

Jump onto an unbroken horse or try to get a yearling bull into a trailer and you'll find out real quick what buck means.

Why would that be, cupcake? Btw, you're behind the times: "African American" is out after the hyprocrisy of calling generational Black Americans "African" was pointed out. Now the proper acceptable term that fucktards like you use is "BIPOC".
(it's another tone deaf way to say "negro" or "colored")
Didn't you get the memo in the DNC talking points e-mail blast?

Then why is the term "young bucks" used for younger white guys? Bro, that is a massive stretch. No one uses the term in the way you are describing. They never have for my entire life. A buck is a "man". It has always been a man.

I second this. Some people might even consider such a name to be a compliment.

God bless you always!!!

Harry Truman was fond of saying "the buck stops here". Was it a racist statement?
