Some people use the term West Asian for people of Western Asia. I use both 'West Asian' and 'Middle Eastern' interchangeably. I was corrected a few times by a certain user when I used 'Middle Eastern'. Forgot what the reason was though. Another user also agreed that we should ditch 'Middle Eastern' and use 'West Asian' instead. The thing is, I have always used 'Middle Eastern' to address Western Asians. Only people in this forum made me reconsider it and use 'West Asian' instead.
What do you think? And which name do you prefer to use yourself?
