Naw.. you'd say "She's of Japanese heritage" and then go on to expain the beautiful extrior that initially attracted you to her.

Unless of course you go for anything with 2 arms, 2 legs... etc....? :D
 
I'd actually say something like "she's japanesse, gringa, canadian, french, ... " or whatever citizenship she holds.

Then move to tits and butt dimensions :lol:

But the question is about people of American citizenship but their ethnicity isn't caucasion.

See, that's where I think the issue comes in...people can be "Asian" and "American" at the same time because Asian is an ethnicity and American is a citizenship. Saying "Asian-American" I think is silly cause that seems to imply in my head their level of Americanism is different than all other American citizens...I don't see any issue in using someone's ethnic background when describing them. But, if the question is about residence, citizenship, etc then it should just be "American". I think the mindset that causes people to say things like "African American" is the word "American" being associated with "Caucasion" by many people around the world...once that's dealt with the whole issue will be easier to sort out.

He got married, has three kids, and is near old enough to be your father.

i suppose describing her as a No.7, with extra Kung Pow on the side would be racist, eh?

Kung Pao is Chinese not Japanese, so I'm sure it would be an awkward remark.

Y'know ... I thought that too as I was hitting "post" but I've never eaten Japanese restaurant food (too damn much fish) so I'd no idea how to make the comment for them. (and yeah, I did actually refer to a chinese girl like that. Given my reputation, everyone got the joke. Although I did have to endure a virtual buffet of chinese food jokes ranging from feeding her my egg roll, to a discussion on the size of my Won ton.) But then, all the oriental girls I "went with" had either British or Canadian accents.
 
With the age he would have been 22 years ago, I'm kind of glad he didn't have a kid 22 years ago. :p
