 Although the term "spastic" technically describes the attribute of spasticity in spastic cerebral palsy and was originally an acceptable and common term to use in both self-description and in description by others, it has since gained more notoriety as a pejorative, in particular when used in pop culture to insult able-bodied people when they seem overly anxious or unskilled in sports (see also the article "spazz").In 1952, a UK charitable organization with a membership mainly of those with spastic CP was formed; this organization called itself "The Spastics Society".However, the charity changed its name to Scope in 1994 due to the term spastics having become enough of a pejorative to warrant the name change.
