What a jerk!
I was chatting online with a guy today. I looked at his profile, and he asked the question, "Where's Mr. Right?"
And so I started the chat by saying, "Don't we all want to the answer to that question."
So, we continued chatting and I found out that he was a political science student at UdM. (Université de Montréal).
Thus, I proceeded to ask if he were francophone, and he told me yes. Then he asked me if I were francophone.
I informed that I wasn't, and that I was Chinese (or Chinese-Canadian), but people tell me I'm an enlightened anglophone.
He then wrote "Chin!" and logged off...
I talked with a friend, and he told me that the term is short for Chin-toque, which is a derogatory French term for Chinese people. It's sort of like Chink in English.
I am bit annoyed, as I would have not expected this type of talk from someone who's doing a degree in Political science at UdM to say this. (And he's 23 or 24). How do you expect to get votes when you go around calling every ethnic minority derogatory names? I'm not surprised that he hasn't found his Mr. Right yet...

I'm disgusted that there are still people like this who haven't gotten their asses kicked yet.
How dare he say something like that when it's obvious that he belongs to a minority as well--(being a gay male, AND ALSO belonging to the francophone community). While his differences may not necessarily be visible, he is nevertheless, part of communities that do not make up the larger part of Canada.
I am completely disgusted by this individual.
If you let me know what his MSN is, I can send him a few disgusting comments of my own.
Don't let him bother you, you're one awesome Chinese-Canadian.
One Love
