is it still okay to say chinaman though? i guess that's the english equivalent. oriental is probably out of fashion too.

Lol its not that bad! Chino is not a slur (but can be used like one). Just means Chinese. But many Spanish Speakers in Central America + Mexico (unsure how Southern/Spain people are) they use Chino in place of Asian out of laziness

Oriental is also not a slur either, but young people who dont know better act like it is. It would be the equivalent of using negro in place of black. Its out dated and not done anymore in American culture.

Oriental IS used in the UK to describe East Asians though and is NOT a slur there
