imo asians are the most freely discriminated race in america. No one cares when someone insults asians. But insult a black, you're dead. Insult a middle eastern, and you get a lecture on how "they're not all terrorists". Insult an asian, and everyone laughs.

That's because asians are easily 'makefunable' so it's ok. Americans too.

Who insults asians?! The only stereotyping I hear is how they are so gawd damn smart.

Yet surprisingly I know some pretty stupid asians. 😛

I needed to respond to that. Asians, Europeans and Westerners all seem to have a sense of humor about themselves. If someone makes fun of one of them due to a stereotype, they go "hehehe...yeah, some of us DO act like that!".

The other nationalities take themselves way too seriously.

Some mexicans and rednecks refer to us as ch*nks, chinos, slant eyes, whatever. It doesn't bother me one bit. I don't know how people can get all worked up over name calling.

So we differentiate rednecks from the the normal whites, but apparently "Mexican" is a derogatory name in and of itself?

Man I'm just trying to start stuff this morning 😛


Merry Christmas :beer:😀
 
yeah some of the asian stereotypes are more like compliments, unless you don't fit the stereotype. But some of them, which can be funny, can also be insulting if coming from the wrong person.

If someone you didn't know or didn't like came up to you and said "you have a small penis", would you really just look at him and laugh? Among other things we're also supposed to be very physically weak and drive rice rockets.

I'm not really a victim of many of these. I have one of the most lax sense of humors you'll ever see in regards to asian stereotyping. But it still bothers me on how freely we are stereotyped in America, because I know there are people that do take offense.
