    Those people obivously know it's a racist term, therefore the thread has to be closed.

    Also, a keylogger is something they send all your key strokes to the people who sent you the keylogger.

    It depends what context you use it in????????

    Racism: or racialism is a form of discrimination based on race, especially the belief that one race is superior to another. Racism may be expressed individually and consciously, through explicit thoughts, feelings, or acts, or socially and unconsciously, through institutions that promote inequality between races.

    Turban: The turban is a headdress, of obscure Oriental origin, consisting of a long scarf wound round the head or an inner hat.

    How can asking what a turban is be racist?

    I still stand by what i said "If you think its a racist term you must think theres something wrong with wearing a turban??"
    So if you find saying the word turban is racist, you're the racist one

    It isn't racist when you're asking what it is, i can't think of 1 sentence it's used in that could be classed as racism.. It's a hat ffs

    FGS.

    Stop making these goddamn threads, because, the thread was closed, thats the end.

    He said TURBIN not TURBAN. Read the goddamn thread proplerly before you start complaining.

    And, just because you don't think it's racist, doesn't mean that is isn't racist okay?

    Now, shut up about it.

    You don't get it..
    Stop replying, you're useless

    Do you really think if someone asked what a turbin is they would be reported to the police for being racist? no you idiot because it's not racist in anyway its just some scarf people wear to hide their hair.

    Argh, your an idiot.

    Turban is what people wear. Turbin is completely different. Just because they're spelt almost the same, doesn't mean they mean the same.

    Also, i can post where ever i want, and you've made about 3 threads asking the same thing, i think one is enough.

    Hold on, ill check dictionary.com .

    Edit: Word "turbin" does not exist.

    A Turban is:
    1. a man's headdress worn chiefly by Muslims in southern Asia, consisting of a long cloth of silk, linen, cotton, etc., wound either about a cap or directly around the head.
    2. any headdress resembling this.
    3. any of various off-the-face hats for women that are close-fitting, of a soft fabric, and brimless, or that have a narrow, sometimes draped, brim.

    Ill ask legoman and see why he thinks its racist, thanks .

    Edit again: Some people are saying it doesnt exist and some say its a racist term. I am not sure yet as I have never heard of it before.
