Actually, I would have thought a British (lol) equivalent of 'yank' is probably something like 'limey'.

And The "United Kingdom" or "Great Britain" no longer exists

...I'm sure someone would have mentioned that... instead of continuing to use the terms "Britain", "British", and "the UK" in just about every area of life :/ Just last term I took a uni course in "The Modern British Novel".

Also from your other thread (I skimmed this whole thread before posting): people associate "Brit" with "racist"

That's another thing I haven't come across either. If we're talking about the whole British Empire thing... well, technically the English are to blame for that.

I think perhaps you're in the minority. You say you live in America now? Maybe (and I mean no offence by this) you're a little out of touch with most people's attitudes (that said, I believe the English are the only ones who don't mind being called British). Essentially, being "British" just means that you are from Britain, from the British Isles. That's just geography. It's not a racial slur of any kind, or not as far as I know, and I have lived here for twenty years.

Okay, fair enough.

I just read your comment and was like 'dude, what?' because seriously, this is the first I've heard about this attitude, and I think a lot of people feel the same way.
