    Question Asian or Oriental?

    EI please note, I noticed on your Dublin Escorts page that there is an Oriental female search option as well as an Asian female search tab. I was not sure of the difference so Googled the terms. I was very surprised to find the following explanation : ""Oriental" refers to THINGS from the Orient - such as food, rugs, souvenirs, etc...material THINGS. Therefore, when you call a human being "oriental" you are referring to them as an object with no soul or substance. This is why "Oriental" is offensive and LEGALLY a racist term (at least here in the USA).

    Asian can be used for people or things, it is not an offensive word at all. Asian refers to anyone or anything that comes from or is related to any country in Asia - from China to India to Vietnam, including the Philippines and Japan, and in some cases that large rural part of Russia."

    I suggest that EI reviews the use of the "oriental" search firstly because it may be offensive / politically incorrect, and secondly because the Asian search may be sufficient.
