Genuine question: would it still be racist, if you use it in a language where it exist, but doesn't have a history of being a racist slur ?
Good question. My inclination would be no, but I would think it would depend on the context being used as well as the audience. It's not something I'm familiar with, however.

My guess would be: when in doubt, refrain.

For example in my country "black person" in my language is a slurs, so yes sometimes it depends on the country and culture.
About the opposites attract thing...
By that chart Cass is my Soulmate. How perfect! lol
Unfortunately Josphine is a "takes work" but at least thats not totally hopeless.
Sera is a normal lover too.

I just found out that if I were to use the date I was supposed to be born, September 5th, on the chart, I'd have been Josephine's soulmate!
Okay it's all good again 
I'm not worried about that chart. One of my favorite couples in fiction is an Aquarius and Pisces pair:
Haruka and Michiru from Sailor Moon.

But their "opposites attract" so they can still work great together.

I'm not worried of the charts becuase I don't believe in those things

Well I'm not a big believer in those star sign compatibility things, however I do have a Pisces tattoo above my left ankle. Hey those college years were fun goddammit!

In the particular example of "******", it's actually widely spread (even more since the breakthrough of japanese cultre) as a diminutive everything japanese, but since my country didn't had a history with Japan, it has as harmless (in my language) as using RV to refer to Recreational Vehicules.
(I'm gonna assume that it's fine as long as it stays in the language where it isn't offensive and end the OT there).

I don't believe in it either, but I like to use it when I create characters. Same thing with numerology. The irony is that I'm an Aquarius and I always have my trusty Brita pitcher with me. The water quality where I work is awful.
I just found it well... It says Vivianne is my soul mate... Even if I could romance her, I kinda find what I've read about her being a bit... abrasive for my tastes... 
Josephine is a lot closer and is at least pink so happy there. 
Sera is way down though and that makes me sad. 
I think I'm just going to ignore that chart there

dirty joke!

Well I don't think I'd be so sad then. 
ColeWhat did it say for you lol
(I'm a capricorn). In the LI the closest is Cullen.

Though I really don't believe in those things.

Personally I find the chart more amusing to see which companions/advisors are each other's soulmates.
Cassandra and Leliana (lol)
Cullen and Josephine
Sera and Blackwall
Varric and Iron Bull (looooool)
Cole and Vivienne (roflcopter)
Dorian and Solas

Yeah this is really confusing. I keep thinking one of you is replying to themselves.

If one of you could reverse/mirror the image, it would help. Then we'd call you Gollom and Smeagol.

See I can see a Josephine/Cullen-thing going on. I think I said previously that if BioWare were to have Josephine hook up with someone else if not romanced, I think it'd be Cullen.
And Cassandra with Leliana is just too comical. Oh, the shippers were right all along. Cole and Vivienne is hilarious as well
