[quote=Anonymous]Asian poster here. Is your nanny from an Asian country or is she Asian-American? Do you remember the whole incident where some basketball team (or sports team) did the whole Chinese eyes while playing in China (I think)? People here dismissed it by saying that if the Chinese themselves weren't offended, then why should Asian-Americans be offended? I think probably most Chinese in China, since they are the majority race/ethnicity, haven't had that thrown at them as a taunt like Asian-Americans have and therefore had no context to be offended. But here in the US, that's a very different thing. Maybe your nanny has a similar mindset? Have you told her that it's considered highly offensive to many people?[/quote]
