STOP using the term “Asian men” to refer these sex offenders – It is inappropriate and too general!

Additional Information

The HM government and media should cease from using the general term ‘Asian men’ while referring to the sex grooming gangs in North of England, and instead, should be bold enough to specifically address these men by their proper ethnic (country) background, and religious background if necessary.

Asia consists of nearly 50 countries and it is insulting and totally unfair to include the 49 nations in the offenders list because of a few. Also, there have been instances of these offenders targeting young Hindu and Sikh girls, who originate from other Asian countries.
