re: #908 Talking Point Detective

I happen to know that in the academic literature, there is clearly a preference among some for the term “person with diabetes” over the term diabetic.

How do you ‘know’ this?

I wouldn’t know the general preferences, but it seems that using the term that the least # of people find offensive might be a good guideline.

Well, once you’ve got a scientific poll, feel free to get back to me.

You know that article you cited agrees with me, right?
