chinaman isn’t a racist term.

“chink” referring to a person, not a gouge out of armor, is a racialy-charged term.

No, according to the Chinese Citizens League, ‘chinaman’ is a slur.

Dutch are okay with Dutchman though.

Each group apparently gets to figure out what offends them for PC rules. Unless it’s white people, and nobody gives a flip about those crackers.

i suppose i should clarify it isn’t racist if the person is actually a guy from china. :-)

otherwise cue david bowie and “china girl” if she’s a gal from china.
