SiGh, I would like to extend you an invitation...

I'm not intrigued. I don't give a fuck.

That's weird man. Here in Australia we dont refer to Indians or Pakis as Asian, Asian's are Chinese, Viet, Filo, Cambo, Jap, etc etc.

Anyway, so if you knew he was Asian, and you have that definition of the term, does that mean SiGh is either Indian or Paki?

In British English, the word "Asian" usually refers to those of South Asian origin, particularly Indians, Pakistanis, and Bangladeshis, and also the less numerous Sri Lankans, Nepalis, and Maldivians.[1] Additionally, British who marked the "Other Asian" category on the UK census were of Afghan, Iranian, Iraqi, Turkish and Yemeni ancestries.[2] It may also refer to people from other parts of Asia,[3] but those of East Asian (such as Chinese or Japanese) or Southeast Asian origin are usually not included in the term; they may instead be called "Oriental", which is a term no longer used in American English (in which the term Asian refers to all peoples from the continent of Asia). This is reflected in the "ethnic group" section of UK census forms and other government paperwork, which treat "Asian" and "Chinese" as separate. Most Central Asians are generally not included in the British categorisation of 'Asian' either.


It is my belief that American English defines races incorrectly. For example, Americans on the board define Europeans as people that are native to Europe. White British people are not 'Europeans', they are White-British, White-Europeans fall under the definition as White-Other, racialy, they are different, they have a different genetic make up to White-British people. You can not use European to define a race, Turkish people for example, they live in Europe, but they are not a white race . The same applies with Orientals, just because they native Asia does not make them Asian. There are too many variations in race to describe a whole continent as one race.

Races should be defined by genetic make up.
