Arabia is in Asia yes. Though to be Arabic does not make you Asian much in the same way as to be from Sweden might not necessarily mean you identify as Swedish. |

"Get a map...find Asia...query answered...
How does that help if he's from Sweden "
He asked if Arabs are classed as Asian. Doesn't matter where you're from, Asian and the countries within that continent don't change... |

although arabs are from the continent of asia tho can be north African too I would refer to arabs as middle eastern its just a quirky one in a way lol like most brits don't describe themselves as European but our country is in Europe |

Might be something diffrent from person to person. From what we've been discussing the only thing I can think of is that some people consider arabs asian, middle eastern or arabian I guess. |

No but then you have to realise that there are a lot of ignorant Xenophobes in Britain.
Someone from the middle east is middle eastern. |

Well of course technically they are Asian’s, but here I think they are just referred to as Arabs. The thing is in the UK when people say Asian the image that pops up is of us South East Asian’s, probably because we make the majority here in the UK. Elsewhere this is probably different the USA for example. |

Defined by the 2006–2011 Australian Census, three broad groups have the word Asian included in their name: Central and Southern Asian, South-East Asian and North-East Asian. Russians are classified as Southern and Eastern Europeans while Middle Easterners are classified as North African and Middle Easterners. |

I see and yes I might catch up on it still, it sounds good, even tho it is fiction, the uprising of it is true and is happening. |

"On here, Asian is Indian or Pakistani descent.
I think some may add Oriental (Chinese, Korean, Vietnamese etc) into the Asian "category".
But no, Arab is Arab not Asian  "
Well on Fab, we have a South Asian category, so I would say that people form India and Pakistan would fall into that, rather than Asian. But people are free to select the category they feel most represents them, so its up to them what they put.
Going back to the OP, are all people who speak Arabic, Asian? No. Arab nations span Africa and Asia, but then of course you have the diaspora who are spread around the world. But I think when it comes to swinging its more about if your face fits rather that what passport is in your pocket |

Geographically its answered by looking at the atlas. However Arabic people have a distinctive look and complexion.. Arabic and oriental are hardly the same thing but get grouped on some internet lists of countries etc..
End of the day, sure we agree, hot is hot regardless of origin |

Well, clearly we are talking about the race when we say Arab here. For me even middle eastern isn't the right word to be used because then some people will mix Arab with Persians and Israelis.
Arab is Arab and there's no way to call them Asian.... They look totally different.
At the end hot people are everywhere and can be found in any race.
And guys remember we don't choose our race, but we choose our behaviour. |

i don't think many behaviours are chosen, I'd say most come from following a cultural norm? |
