I have thus far in my life lived in Italy, Japan and Hong Kong as well as working with an international crowd from starting work in 1984, first in film, then in telecoms.Of the four outstanding bosses I've had in last 35 years, one was a black woman. One of my closest and trusted colleagues in telecoms was a Tinglit Indian woman. I was at a dinner party last night with our regular crowd out here, two turks, one Indian Singaporean , one Chinese / Portugese Singaporean, one Italian, two American Chinese. So no, xenophobia and chauvinism do not ring any bells. Not liking cunts for acting repeatedly like cunts, at an individual and national level, that's just plain good sense.
