Do you recall a schoolyard rhyme, with actions that went something like this:

Chinese,
Japanese
Siamese
Dirty Knees


I also remember a jigsaw puzzle my gran gave me when I was very little which featured various nations of the Commonwealth in their national dress. I was always fascinated by the one with the neckrings. Burma? Something like that.

At least....I think it was commonwealth nations...might have just been a racist depiction of various non-euro peoples.

pulling the sides of the eyes? vaguely. God I'm old. Today in the school yards they just take words like rape and repurpose them.....

You missed out the last line, which was "and what are these?" where you cupped non-existant breasts. Racist and sexist, ding ding!
