      black women and asian men are perceived very similarly in relation to their counterparts, just on the opposite side of the spectrum. The perceived stereotypes that make black men desirable(manly, masculine, aggressive, etc etc) in the dating arena become negative for black women. Its works the same way for asian women(submissive, passive, quiet, etc etc) and asian men. Hence why they is such a fetishization of black men and asian women.

    Eddie Huang, I’m at your parents age and I grew up being “disciplined” also. While I do believe that it maybe necessary when major wrong is being done by the child, but to get spanked just because the grade has fallen, is ridiculous! I hope when you have kids of your own one day, you’ll never be “violent” to them. To beat your child thinking that’s training for leadership is simply, a load of craps.

      I think this is representative of poor immigrants moving to "lands of opportunity", rather than just an asian thing. They do understand that as the non-dominant race you have to work way harder to be on the same level and in most asian cases to just get to 2-3 levels below those of your peers. The only thing wrong is their execution of motivation. Older generations grew up with discipline through fear and while some have assimilated, they still have issues of showing remorse, at least to your face.

    Eddie don’t be offended bc people don’t know where Taiwan is...people in this country don’t even know about their own history. I’m from Puerto Rico, an American, living in Colorado, and many mainlanders don’t know where PR is and that we are Americans...

    6:16 "Being polite (with your family) is also a sign of distance" said Eddie's mom. Most Asian families would know exactly what she means. This one is golden. I have seen too many American friends and their family members trying so hard to be courteous with each other they shove any family issues that need resolution under the rug. In the end there is nothing authentic about their relationships with each other.

      He narrated season 1, but they wouldn't show any of the "discipline" so he broke away.

    • @shellcase20
      @shellcase20 3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      @@kills26 One thing I read was that he didn’t like the way the show made his dad look foolish and almost incompetent in running his restaurant. Reality was his father was a very successful restaurant owner.

    • @kills26
      @kills26 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@shellcase20 Maybe a little of both ? I'm not sure, he did make the comment about discipline in some interview and how he felt it lacked the realism. But I think I also remember him mentioning his Dads business.
      I felt the show got better when he stopped narrating though. I only just came back to it, I stopped watching because I found that commentary annoying. Wasn't a fan a of the wonder years doing it either.

    • @zeccy337
      @zeccy337 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I've read his memoir and frankly its quite dark at times, he frequently mentions how his dad physically abused him and was extremely strict with him. And I get that he wants that to be shown, but at the same time.. it's a sitcom. Nobody wants to watch a dad whoop his kid on camera. The show was intended to be a light hearted comedy sitcom based on his memoir, not some dark gritty drama he envisioned it to be.

    The problem with America is it is difficult for a minority to have an identity of their own. Obama's presidency helped a lot in making this progress, with latino and women supreme court picks, gay rights in military. Giving place for every identity to exist has been its biggest achievement. I hope all governments across the globe let all peaceful identities that respect individual human rights exist and thrive. It will only strengthen and improve the harmony in society.

      @GreaterGood510 Agree. In Obama's 8 years, race issues actually got skewed and worsened. He and Pelosi knew it. Pelosi is a blatant RACIST. He is impotent, blinded-sighted and apathetic. His wife is utterly low-class and ultimately racist.
