Guest c0lap1nada Posted March 8, 2008 Share Posted March 8, 2008 ^But isn't Kawaii also a Chinese word? I heard it on Taiwanese dramas. "Kawaii" means "cute" in Japanese. What did you think it meant? O_o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest twinkle_l0ve Posted March 9, 2008 Share Posted March 9, 2008 yeah wannabe koreans can make it seem like all korean do is: have cosmetic surgery, go around constantly taking pictures of themselves and photoshopping it, breaking out into tell me dances in the street, speaking random korean phrases, all while munching on kimchi and dduk i hate those generalisations as well..

Guest HearMeGoRAWR Posted March 9, 2008 Share Posted March 9, 2008 Not to be mean but I’ve seen other Asians want to be Japanese just because of anime and manga. If they want to learn and experience the culture that’s fine but just for anime or manga? They’re not even real! This reminds me of a Korean girl I met last week who called me a "wannabe Asian". She told me to stop being Asian at all because I was embarrassing their culture. I wasn‘t doing anything, I just walked to her and she just started yelling at me. She thought I actually went and got surgery on eyes to look more Asian. I told her that I never even had any type of plastic surgery then one of her friends said “OMG! You‘re a half-breed! EW!” They got up and left. I thought that was one of the most rudest remarks I ever got in my life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Amanda Plz Posted March 9, 2008 Share Posted March 9, 2008 ^ That's really rude. I would have gone after that girl and thrown stuff at her for calling me a half breed . Anyway, this thread is really bad and full of racism, so I'll just say my 2 cents and then slink back off to the food thread. I agree that the wannabe asians are annoying. A lot of my friends online are like this...They call themselves Neko chan, Jen chan, blahblahblah and I dunno, it just seems reallllly weird. Especially when they tell me these random facts and act like they're better than me just because I'm not as obsessed as they are/interested in the culture as they are. And irl...it is just really scary when a 200 and plus pound girl comes into school wearing a Sailor Moon outfit for Halloween, shouting random Japanese. Okay, maybe that's not being a wannabe but that seriously was frightening and it left scars. But you know :/. Besides people acting like they're better than me, I really don't care HOW they dress/percieve theirselves to be. It's not me after all and who am I to tell them not to do so because they're not a certain race? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Puurin Posted March 9, 2008 Share Posted March 9, 2008 Haha the people who carry around manga with Naruto headbands and Rurouni Kenshin backpacks and like shirts with a Sumo wrestler on it. HAhAHHa xD Those people are funny with their Naruto fanart on Deviant and such. They are annoying sometimes... but so are white washed Asians who act like wannabe Asians. That's just so weird... and even white-washed they don't even know anything about white culture! I grew up gutting chickens and I know more white culture than white washed Asians.

Guest tinatran_ Posted March 9, 2008 Share Posted March 9, 2008 when i saw the title of this thread, i thought of this 12% filipino guy in my class. he says he's mixed with japanese, korean, chinese and a bunch of other asian languages and being native -______-'' everyone finds him annoying. i find it wierd because he tries to hard . like, sometimes, he'd bring chopsticks to class just to play with them, he'd try to do the infamous "peace-sign" pose, he'd pose with the blown-up cheeks looks, he'd draw manga when he can't and the list goes on. suuure, he is about 25% asian, but i dont know. i still consider him as a "wasian" -,- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest michilatte Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 i'm okay with them, but when they start talking about how much more asian they are than me, and telling me that i should act more asian, is when i want to smack them across the face.

Guest ★★★ Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 i'm white and i find it annoying i may like asian fashion/music but i dont TRY to be asian i LOVE being white,i wouldn't change myself for anything ever. however i do have friends that are like that...only talk to asian's,speak asian languages,write asian writing on their pictures,eat only asian food,eat with chopsticks. its okay to have an interest in something but when it goes this far they need to be put into check. and like how an asian can be a total meanie to a white person but they still like them because they are asian i will admit one of my best friend's happens to be asian but if she was white,black,or hispanic i would still wanna be friends with her. because people should wanna be friends with people for their personality NOT their race.
