I mean, if you say crippled now a days, you are frowned upon. What we need to remember is words, phrases, descriptions are always changing to fit the lifestyle that we are currently leading.

Bottom line, there is NO official, universally agreed upon, politically correct term
to use. There is terminology that people prefer and words that people choose to be offended by. You can't please everyone, as you said, why let it bother you that much?
