>>4500881The Near Easterners/Middle Easterners/West Asians were once called Orientals, up until the definition of Oriental was expanded further and further east, so as to end up accounting for East Asians, themselves. For some reason, Oriental is not a popular term to describe East Asians, anymore, probably perceived as offensive, but I'm not sure what the deal is. I'm not against their people, either, because I can find both East Asian and Middle Eastern women attractive.
