I'm Chinese, so scientifically speaking, I'm biogically a person of the mongoloid race. I hate the word "mongoloid". one time, a white person asked me what race am I, I answered "mongoloid". Then he told me I cant answer with that word. What am I supposed to say
Okay, next time I see a black person, I'm gonna ask where he/she's from. When the reply is 'Nigeria' I'm gonna run away 10 yards and yell: "Nigeriaaaaaan!!!!"
Is it okay then?
Here it's considered offensive if you were to address a Turkish person with 'Turk'.
