The equivalent would be a Chinese-man not a Chinaman

Unless it’s 1820

I'm asking if Chinaman is racist why not Englishman. What's the difference?

Chinese man is the equivalent of English man. Chinaman is the equivalent of Paddy, Mick, Frog, etc etc

Hope this helps.

Is Yank racist? Australians call the English Poms. It's meant to be insulting, or used to be, but it's not racist.
It's hardly ever used as it's now Brits, which includes the rest of Britain.

Anyway, I would refer to someone from China as Chinese singular, not Chinaman. The word just doesn't sound racist to me.

What about a left arm wrist spinner in cricket?

The Spin | Isn’t it about time cricket consigned ‘chinaman’ to the past?

With the laws of the game now encompassing gender-neutral terminology, the banishing of a phrase coined in Yorkshire more than 90 years ago seems a little overdue

Loved the BMX finals! French 1 2 3 was great!

Gutted for our British girl though in her final. Won every heat only to get a poor start in the last race!

Plus great watching Teddy Riner dominate the +100kg Judo men's!! What a legend!

 

[neil999]

Just watched some shooting...absolutely gripping as they just showed them shooting the gun and no target hahaha

English man is equivalent of Chinese man.

Englandman would therefore be the equivalent of Chinaman. I have never heard of the former not indeed Irelandman, Franceman, Germanyman etc

I've been to the Isle of Man
