a different random thought

This misses my point entirely.  My question is, when did it become improper and why?    This is not a matter of "learning".  It's a matter of cultural change. And I'm asking how and why?

It has always been improper. Asked and answered.

No it hasn't.  Not at all.  It BECAME improper.  It BECAME politically incorrect. It wasn't before.

I can understand his point that it was always technically improper.I think

In what way?  

By the way, I heard a vegan saying she wouldn't refer to beef as beef anymore, only cow meat so it didn't objectify the cow.

In no way LOL . I was thinking backwards . Oriental is more accurate than Asian and makes a lot more sense.
The term has always been used to describe people from east Asia. People with slanty eyes LOL

So Now   Russians are Asians I guess as well as people from Saudi Arabia.

For the love of all that's holy
