Re: Forbidden Subject

Could you tell us if the British Pakistani community finds the abbreviation of Pakistani offensive? It seems that most of us non-Pakistanis are split on this question as to many it is the same as aussie, brit, yank, pom, argie etc and is derived as such. Would you say that most things that some white lefty liberals say cause offence to the 'asian' community do not actually cause offence - such as hot-cross buns, the christmas nativity etc.

I (we?) would be very interested in hearing more from you.
