Is it racism to call an asian person "yellow"?
 
I just saw the Spanish version of "Takeshi's Castle", and it is called "Humor Amarillo" :1orglaugh :helpme
( Amarillo is the word for yellow in Spanish )

wyldworx 01-14-2007 01:56 PM

Really depends what gradient is applied...

Agent 488 01-14-2007 01:56 PM

yes. if you called them slant eyed gooks it would be different.

Ross 01-14-2007 02:09 PM

My friend calls Chinese people that. He's kinda a racist tho.. I mean he would never call someone that to their face but he says it when talking about Chinese people.

Klen 01-14-2007 02:12 PM

Yellow?Huh i didnt hear that term for a long time.

alexg 01-14-2007 02:35 PM

i would say it depends on the situation in which you say it...

In Spain any asian gets called a 'chino' anyway. So not really that much worse.

Haha this is true, same goes for those asian bazaar shops around ( there must be thousands of them throughout Spain )

reynold 01-15-2007 06:10 PM

Does someone still use 'yellow' these days?

DaddyHalbucks 01-15-2007 06:20 PM

No word is inherently bad, or inherently good.

For example, if you were quoting someone and criticizing them, it is different that using the word yourself.

Spunky 01-15-2007 06:30 PM

There's a hell of a lot worse you could call them
