Did anyone see the 'Thick Whites' article in the Sun Newspaper yesterday?

Question

This article annoyed me so much.

Apparantly a study has been done on which enthic group makes more progress during school from the age of 11 to 16. I think it was non-British born Indians, Chinese and I can't remember the other one, are making better progress than British born people. Therefore they named the article 'Thick Whites'!

Now if it turned out that, just for example, it was Indian people that made the least progress. They wouldn't call the article 'Thick Indians' would they, because that would be racist!

I'm not really bothered about being called a thick white because I am not thick and I am proud to be white, but its just the principle of it. There would be huge rows and complaints if it wasn't the white people being slated!

Does anyone else think this is rude?!

Answer 1

Never read that but sounds rude.
