It's only offensive if used aggressively to describe someone who's ethnically Japanese but doesn't live there.

yo jap, walk on

Is GAIJIN an insult?

>>52537471
Sometimes. It depends on the tone, but if it's unclear it might be better to just use gaikokujin instead.
Point is in real life I would never call someone a Jap, as the term still sounds kinda insulting to me, but I generally wouldn't really mind being called gaijin.
OP is wondering what you guys think about being called Japs though.

>>52537353
I learned JAP is an insult in English.
Therefore I think so.
Actually, I don't care.
As nickname, it is Jappy and so on.

yo yank

Yes, it is an insult. It is what American soldiers called Japanese during the war. Given that history it does not have a good sound.

Is fat an insult?

>>52537353
absolutely. dont use that shit irl, amerifat. its the most famous english racial slur or cuss word among japanese people. more than 90% of them dont even know of any other ones, including "nigger", but everyone just knows "jap".

they would instantly hate you and treat you as an uncivilized egomania who has a serious mental illness if you said it out loud in front of them.

Sasuga gringos.

if it is it shouldn't be. i can't call a japanese person a jap because we were at war 70 years ago? that's dumb. gook is a slur. jap is just an abbreviation of japanese.

british > brit = not offensive
jewish > jew = not offensive
japanese > jap = offensive?

fuck off japs

>>52540612
>jew = not offensive
. . . typical american

Who or what is a gook then, I've only heard it in movies referring to asians. Also I hear chinaman is suppose to be wrong, everybody here calls chinese people chinamen without having a bad meaning.

Why is Jap an insult? It is just a contraction. Everyone like to shorten names. Is nip from nippon an insult as well?

>>52540612
same with pakistan > paki desu

fuck off anti-semite. implying calling someone a "jew" is in any way offensive is implying there is something inherently wrong with being jewish.

At first Jap was not a term of insult and officially used in the world.
I thought it was during WW2 or something it turned to be a disparaging one.

I myself often use Jap for myself instead of fucking redundant Japanese.

Some call the piss slit of a penis 'the jap's eye'

Hehe

>>52540612
what an inconsistent underage logic. literally you look just like a 7 yo child and already have a serious mental problem like infantile autism. ask your mom to take you to a doctor already.

What about Wapanese?

>>52537353
It's rather me that wants to ask it.
Which do you anons use Jap as, an insult or just a shortened form of Japanese?
If that word is listed with other ethnic slurs such as chink or gook it is clear that the "jap" is used as an insult, but in many other cases it's hard to guess whether the use of it is offensive or not.

JAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

someone caused explosion, and then many children and elder people disappeared.
someone threw several tens of thousands bomb,
and then many children and elder people disappeared.

You whites not only lost much common people, but also put the blame on somebody.
You are so coward.
