I've never heard the word, but I certainly know the stereotype.. I go to a school where the majority are boarders, many from overseas. Out of the 300 students (small school, I know) about 50 or so are from China or HK (mainly HK, actually). Of course, being a posh girls' school and all, no one discriminates and everyone is v nice etc but the stereotype still exists.. also everyone thinks I'm a boarder because I look (and am) Chinese but I live here.. (UK)

Our Uni's about 50% Asian. Chinese are regarded as very hard working, good at maths, usually studying in either Law, accountacy, maths and stats or acurial. They're also the ones you'd expect to find in the library at obscene hours of the morning.
But they're also usually considered rather rude and sometimes ill-mannered - particularly by the British...
When I was at school it was 95% 'white', 5% other. But then again, in parts of the UK, what do you expect!! I do know that when my local community thinks chinese they think the following:
Hard-working Smart Take-away Rich Ill-mannered Loud

I think it's rude to call anyone racist terms. But I wouldn't care if anyone called me a 'c***k', because, I think there's no reason to be angry over a racist jackass. mad

When I was young all the kids were jealous at how much smarter I was, so they started to hate me =_=". I was totally ok with it, me and the rest of the Chinese (there were only a few) became close friends and we had names "The geeks", "The Nerds" and "The Chinks". Words can't hurt me but rocks can, where ever we go we'd get pummeled with rocks, sticks anything they can find, so I decided to take action. The next day unfortunatly their "leader" was wearing a hooded sweat shirt, I took advantage and choked him till he was blue, they never bothered me or my friends again, they were even to scared to tell on me.

Woah. O: Heck, no one called me a c***k before, but I wouldn't really care if they label me. :/ Because I know it's a racist term.

I don't see what's wrong with calling people Chinks. I mean, where I live, there's a lot of Chinese people, but we're all scattered, so it's pretty difficult to see a Chinese unless you live next door to each other but aside from that, I call my friends Chink, and I'm a chink myself. We're all cool with being called that.
Like, other asian races have names too. But.. I don't know them. xDD
