Did you piss someone off by calling them Euro Trash? If he/she is your friend then it's a term of endearment...if it's someone you don't know - then he/she should have bitch slapped the skin off your cheek. Friends insult with care, strangers insult with malice.
That's just how shit works around here.

The first time it really got noticed was on a Frech TV program and we did not take offense.
You have to remember we are more confident about who we are and what we achieved than some people. It's those with l;ittle confidence that have to keep defending themselves.
Anyway we take it as a joke unless it's used in spite.Comment

so if it's said by a flag waving American a European would take it as a term of endearment, a compliment.

Is the term "White Trash" offensive to Americans?

I think White trash is a term aimed at trashy people, not White people as a whole. From what I have seen in movies, etc, Eurotrash seems to be a somewhat derogatory term used to describe Europeans as a whole.Is the term "White Trash" offensive to Americans?

There are so many european countries, cultures, and languages I don't see how anyone could take such a term seriously and thus be offended by it. I'm not european though so what the hell do I know?Originally posted by HighOnAcid
How do you figure? That's like saying the N-word is too broad of a term to be offensive. I think EURO is pretty cut and dry, IMHO.Comment

And there is only one African country, tribe or culture? I think the broader a derogatory term is, the more offensive it is - isn't it? I mean would it not be more offensive to refer to a non-White as a subhuman than to refer to a Black as a ******?There are so many european countries, cultures, and languages I don't see how anyone could take such a term seriously and thus be offended by it. I'm not european though so what the hell do I know?
Wouldn't you be simply steteotyping over a greater population - and thus arguably being more ignorant? I am not some hippie, but by todays standards this seems to be what would make the most sense?Comment

Naw, I think they're just too sensative if that offends them. Going back to that whole, "Sticks and Stones...blah blah blah" mantra. If any word offends a person then they have rice paper skin. Now if you called him EuroTrash and followed it up with a hefty right to the chin, then I'm sure he would be offended, a little.Originally posted by Odin88

Technically yeah i guess. The history of the word ****** is probably what makes it so offensive. Eurotrash doesn't have that history. I could see thinking poorly of a person who would say eurotrash and being offended at the persons overall attitude, but not the word itself unless the european has a very thin skin. It seems like it would be about as offensive as the word cracker. Not very.Originally posted by Odin88

European countries are too different to be labeled under one term. Take Albania and Norway. Not exactly identical twins.
So no, I don't think it's offensive to most Europeans, especially not if it's coming from North Americans.
Neither would you be if I said Canaduh to a Canadian, or ignorant fat fuck to an American.These guys steal your signups: Read here.

naah, not offensive because there is no "european" identity like there is an "american" identity because of different languages and different cultures so if you want to insult "europeans" you have to be more specific, i.e french frog or whateverICQ: 37378183Comment
