In a document commissioned by Ofcom titled "Language and Sexual Imagery in Broadcasting: A Contextual Investigation"[5] their definition of chink was " a term of racial offence/abuse. However, this is polarising. Older and mainly white groups tend to think this is not usually used in an abusive way—e.g., let's go to the Chinky—which is not seen as offensive by those who aren't of East Asian origin; Chinky usually refers to food not a culture or race however, younger people, East Asians, particularly people of Chinese racial background and other non-white ethnic minorities feel the word 'Cinky, Chinkies or Chinkie' to be as insulting as 'paki' or 'nigger'."
