What is chinito meaning?

"Chinito" is a slang term in Spanish used to refer to someone or something that has Asian physical features, particularly small eyes that are slit-shaped. It can be used either as a term of endearment or a derogatory term, depending on the context and tone in which it is used. Some Spanish-speaking countries, such as Mexico and the Philippines, frequently use this term to describe someone of Asian descent. However, it is important to note that the use of this term can perpetuate negative stereotypes and prejudice towards Asians.
