已定居的少数民族对最近移徙者的陈规定型形式的种族内部歧视被解释为内化的种族主义，取代了对当地归属等级的耻辱和谈判。对初来乍到的移民的刻板印象构建了文化边界和归属感的主张，为正在进行的移民使种族变得复杂的身份认同过程提供了线索。在英裔巴基斯坦人对新生的描述中，这种差异的主张与家庭关系和跨国婚姻的高发生率并存。对网络喜剧视频中的“新人”形象的分析，结合定性研究材料，通过对差异、相似和厌恶的表现，提供了对文化和社会资本、移民和性行为动态的洞察。这些不仅揭示了近期移民在社会经济和象征权力结构中的弱势地位，而且还揭示了社会类别的模糊，以及在英裔巴基斯坦人之间的身份认同谈判中跨国亲属关系的持续重要性。
Intra-ethnic discrimination, in the form of stereotyping of recent migrants by settled ethnic minorities, has been interpreted as internalized racism, displacing stigma and negotiation of local hierarchies of belonging. Stereotypes of Fresh off the Boat' migrants construct cultural boundaries and assertions of belonging, offering clues to processes of identity-making where ethnicity is complicated by ongoing migration. In British Pakistani portrayals of freshies', this assertion of difference coexists with familial ties and a high incidence of transnational marriage. Analysis of the figure of the freshie' in internet comedy videos, combined with qualitative research material, provides insight into dynamics of cultural and social capital, immigration and sexuality through manifestations of difference, similarity and disgust. Together these not only reveal the weakness of recent migrants' positions in structures of socio-economic and symbolic power, but the blurring of social categories, and the continuing importance of transnational kinship in negotiations of identity amongst British Pakistanis.
