Tutu

A frilly-looking sort of skirt, made of tulle and worn by ballerinas and cool people. One can tell when it is worn by a ballerina because the person in question will usually also be wearing some form of dance shoe and have their hair up in a strict bun. When a cool person wears a tutu, one can tell because others are always gazing upon them in unabashed admiration and desire. Cool people in tutus can often (but not always) be found fighting crime, assassinating terrorists, and helping little old ladies cross the street.
Ballerina: Look at me dancing around in my little tutu!
Passerby: Huzzah!

John: Emma is wearing a tutu. She's not a ballerina, so that means she must be a cool person. I wish I had a tutu.
Passerby: Don't we all.

tutsi

The Tutsi are one of the native peoples of Rwanda, along with the Hutu and Twa. Historically, the Tutsi and Hutu were known mainly by their role; the Tutsi were mainly pastoral and usually of the nobility and the ruling class while the Hutu were more often peasant farmers, although there were Hutu rulers and Hutu and Tutsi could easily exchange roles. Hutu and Tusi share the same language and culture and intermarriage between Hutu and Tutsi is common (although a Tutsi man marrying a Hutu woman is very rare and a Hutu man marrying a Tutsi woman is quite common).

The Belgians, upon colonizing Rwanda, were taken by the (seemingly) more "European" facial features of the Tutsi (stereotypically, the Tutsi are taller and thinner, with longer, more pointed noses, straighter hair, and more angular features) and favored them over the stockier, medium-sized Hutu. Never mind that there are Hutu who look Tutsi, Tutsi who look Hutu, that many Rwandans fit neither discription and that intermarriage is common, this played a huge role in creating tension between Hutu and Tutsi... thus leading to the 1994 genocide.
By Belgian definition, a Tutsi was a person with more than ten cow and a long, pointed nose, while a Hutu was a person with less than ten cows and a broad, short nose. Discriminatory? I think so.

Tutsi were referred to by the Radio-Television des Los Mille Collines as "cockroaches," thus showing how the Hutu felt about them.
