Some of the posters are a bit harsh. All you have to do, when someone identifies you incorrectly, is correct them. When I was speaking to some Japanese friend years ago I used the term ‘oriental’ to refers to Japanese men. One of my friends, in a ‘its-no-big-deal’ kind of way, informed me that they prefer the term Asian as the word Oriental connotes vases and other artifacts. Hey, I didn’t know!! But, she knew that it was not malicious. People can’t know what offends others unless they read it, or hear it. Some of the posters seem to have an attitude just waiting for some reason to unleash it.
