Naming

[edit]

While the use of the word "squaw" is pejorative, the dress is most often called a "squaw dress," both by Anglo and Native American sources. However, I am not the authority of the use of the word. I made the decision to call the article "Squaw dress" because that seemed the best point of discovery. I may be wrong. If anyone think it should be changed, discuss here.
