2017-02-01 | Been called a 'snowflake'? The 'it' new insult
'Apparently a snowflake is not just a little white speck of a winter flurry that we wish for on Christmas day. '
'During the 1970s, snowflake was used as a derogatory term for white or black people who were perceived as acting white. ', "But the slang term isn't new -- and its use has evolved quite a bit."
'In Missouri in the 1860s, a "snowflake" was a person who was against the abolition of slavery, according to Merriam-Webster. '
'Today, snowflake is used to describe a person perceived as overly sensitive and fragile, often in a mocking way. '
