If you want to be politically correct, we should start referring to ourselves as North American because there’s another continent that contains “America” in it. If you don’t want to call East Asians “Asian,” which is the general use in American vernacular (possibly in other countries, too, but I’m not very familiar with that), then it’s incorrect to call yourself American. Even though the rest of the world uses the term to describe someone from or something related to the United States, it excludes Canada, Mexico, and all of South America.
*edited*, that’s a really decent point.
I still say it’s silly to call someone asian if they were not actually born somewhere in Asia (for the reasons stated above) but I’m not going to go all grammar-Nazi if someone calls Japanese or Chinese people asisn because it is technically acurate.
Oh, and the guy from the Dragon Ball trailer looks nothing like Master Roshi. It’s a bunch of crap.
