So … Dracula is really a “living impaired hemoglobin enthusiast”
…….. Frankenstein is really a “biologically regenerated terror provider”
…….. Werewolf is really a “lunar initiated transfiguration activist”
In 2007, Santa Clauses in Sydney, Australia, were disallowed from saying “Ho Ho Ho” (seriously) because ………… “it was too close to the African-American slang for prostitute” …. and Santa Clauses were instructed to lower their voices and say “Ha ha ha”.
I can only conclude ….

Yea but eventually being called a “colored spider” will be taken as degrading.

Never disturb a black widow that is pregnant (not sure how you would determine that). She will attack and bite.

I’ve never seen a black widow with the hourglass on top and I’ve seen many thousands of them.

That picture seems more like an Australian Red Back. VERY painful bite, but generally not fatal (unless the recipient has serious underlying problems).
Contrast that with the justifiably infamous Aussie Funnel web spider – which CAN kill. Pretty common all over the Eastern coast – Sydney has it’s own subspecies.
