In my region every ref has a (short) session on "respect" and discrimmination. We did an interesting exercise where we talked through all kinds of positive and negative experiences around different types of diversity (gender, sexual, cultural, racial, social, age, ability etc.).Agree with you @JamesL, although think an issue is the generational divide - there are some words/phrases/terms that would have been acceptable a decade or so ago that someone of my age wouldn't even think of using now, but as we've seen on this thread, there is a different attitude to them by some. This is where some form of guidance may come in handy I think.
