    Is the term "Euro-Trash" offensive to Europeans?

    Just wondering if this is taken seriously or not -- or if Europeans just think Americans are stupid...

    Is the term "white trash" offensive to white people or just white trash?

          Why would it be? The 'correct' use ie the way most outside of the US would use it would be to describe a certain type of European.

          Besides - I've always wanted to be thought of as trashy

              Great show! Shame Jean Paul isn't still co-presenting it. Even bigger shame that lolo died as she used to be a regular. One scary woman,

                      He started a series with the question 'Do I really talk like this after being in this country xx years or do I speak like this just for the show'

                      The dubbing makes the show though

                                    I don't think it's that serious. I mean I dont' take it seriously. Would you take it serious if someone called you stupid for being an American? I guess checking the source before taking it personal is important

                                        I have to admit - some of the Europeans I've met in the States are in fact Eurotrash- however, don't meet too many in Europe haha...
