I don't like hearing Americans use the word 'Jap' but they say it quite a lot out here...are you saying I'm not allowed to be offended because I'm English?

So there is no difference between a family member and people from different places of the world as far as being offended by someone insulting them goes? (bear in mind most foreigners doesn't give two shits about hearing the word).
Anyways I agree with a previous poster - your GF just seems way too PC. Let the gaijins complain if they feel offended - not the japanese.
