arent' Oriental Asians (those of jpanese, chinese, korean, vietnamese descent) colors are really white and not yellow? And arent caucasians' real color is pink? The only caucasians who have white skin are those of spanish, irish and italian descent. I think oriental asians should be called white cos many of them are white like ivory and caucasians shoud be called pink bcos of their pinkish complexion. Whats your opinion on this? Im just an observer of things, if you dont mind.

I have never personally heard an Asian person called yellow. I heard it on TV, but never in person.
As far as your statement: the only caucasians who have white skin are those of Spanish, Irish and Italian descent, what the HELL are you smoking? There are plenty of darker complected people from all of those countries and have you ever heard of Eastern Europe? Some of the whitest people alive--wait, wait, the Netherlands, Scandinavia---some of them are so white they're translucent.
You're not a very good observer.

the completed yellow term isn't something extra suitable than a racist slang. in case you relatively look you will see that their are different dermis tones between Asians. i'm 0.5 Korean, and function slightly an olive tint to my dermis as does my mom. I even have pals that are chinese language, and Vietnamese and their dermis tones are different.

Why are whites called whites when they are darker than Hispanics and Asians?
I bet it's a white who asked this question...they always do ask the "race" questions as if to appear ignorant or unknowledgeable about what they ask; when inside they are fooling no one but themselves.
