[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Who decided affectionately saying how’s little Paco the Taco is “racist”? Wtf op. Wtf America. Our Japanese and Indian couple’s kids were called Sushi & Samosa for years. My husband probably said it most of all since they were grad school friends. And no one got labeled a “racist” whilst the kids were in utero or out. [/quote] There’s a big difference between a Japanese parent affectionately calling their child Sushi, and a random white person calling the child Sushi because they think it’s funny or clever or whatever. Context matters. My H calling me “babe” or “sweetie” is fine. My FIL or boss or random guy on the street? Not okay to call me that. [/quote]
