So how about 'W.O.G' which is said to derive from 'Wily Oriental Gentleman' ?

no ... it stands for 'Western Oriental Gentlemen'. The true wogs are those from the Middle east. It's not my fault aussies got it wrong for the last 200 years .

Our esteemed leader:
I hope that bitch who was running their brothels for them gets raped with a cactus.

Wrong again.

At the beginning of its use, 'Wog' carried no connotations of abuse or insult with it, and referred only to the young Indians who went to study civil service in the UK during the Raj.

Perhaps you should read this entry on the term "wog" at Wikipedia, Herbie. It might educate you. It might even correct your change your thinking on the matter.

Brian - I have read books on India, and as against the 'information' contained in cheap-and-nasty 'populist' sources such as 'Wikipedia', I think I'll stick with the version I discovered in the weighty tomes that were required reading at school.

The matter is no longer up for discussion.

Consider yourself dismissed.

Precisely.

You may now leave the room. Close the door quietly behind you.

Ask my Northern European Dutch neighbour if she and her husband were exempt from Aussies calling them 'wogs'.
