BTW, are Indians counting themselves as Asian ?

<-- asian.

This thread has Asian in the title, that means everyone who is asian is more inclined to click on it and vote. Many non asians probably don't care and don't view the thread.

Not everone on the board is Asian, but 90% of them are obsessed with Asian things.

I'm Mexican/german, btw, and in that 10% that only cares for the food. ;)

Asian persuasion here.

5'9" 160lbs - white gfs have stated that I'm above avg for all races

Question for asians - do you consider being the term "banana" as an insult? I don't and consider myself one. Just curious b/c I know some do.

I don't find it that insulting unless the person was using it as an insult. I am an American first. I do enjoy having some Chinese/Taiwanese culture though.

What is funny though is I am 6'0" and about 195-200 lbs. I am pretty fit to. One of my friends introduced me to one of his friends. My friend later told me the guy was shocked to find out I was fully asian. ;) :laugh:

He said, "He can't be asian, he is too big. I have never seen an asian that looks like he can play football before." :Q :laugh: I thought it was hilarious. Especially since I am not that big. Actually pretty average for the general population (except for my quads ;) ). I guess rack it up to living in the South. :p

**EDIT**
I know of at least 4 guys who are asian, that are huge. I am talking 6'5"+ and pretty fit themselves. But of course that is very uncommon.

Hahaha, I didn't even notice that actually. No that isn't why that is my user name, but that is a funny coicidence. Is that correct in pinyin anyways?
