(User Info | Send a Message) | The Koreans in my family, when speaking in English, describe themselves with the "O" word - I didn't know it had taken on pejorative overtones. Sorry about that.
I'd like to find the right word for the group of people I have in mind. I didn't use "Asian", because the WSJ journal article uses the term to include Indians and Pakistanis, who are racially and culturally very different than the Chinese and Koreans that make up the bulk of Monta Vista's "Asians". . The peoples and cultures east of Tibet are quite different from those on the Indian Subcontinent. Two different sets of languages and gene pools. When you lump the two different groups together, you're taking about 3/4 of all people on Earth. Is there no "PC" way to be more precise than "Asian"?
So any suggestions?
Maybe when "Dac" grows up enough to type he can suggest something too.
