Nah, those people thought Asian is only Japan, Korea, China. No, India, Vietnam, Thai, Malaysia, Indonesia, Laos, and others Asian country didn’t exist. They thought that Asian are just some anime or Kdramas.
The glorification of Asians and Asian culture through anime, Kpop, and Kdramas has made many people forget about the unpleasant things in east Asian culture such as the high suicide rate, plastic surgery rates, and powerful families/gangs that can pressure police and courts. Most Asians don't look like cute anime girls or Kpop idols and things aren't so pretty beneath the surface
And they forgot about all of the diversity in the east asian culture, yeah they're not e-girls and e-boys of course but like - where's the food ? The beliefs ? Like bruh
@PouLS Yeah, they only fixate on East Asian culture which is only a part of the continent. There's just a total disregard for west Asia, South Asia, Central Asia, and South East Asia. A lot of people also seem to forget that Russia is a part of Asia.
Anyone that changes to become "Chinese", hell, just put them through the start of COVID-19 where Chinese people were discriminated against and killed for "starting the pandemic." Racism towards the Chinese really reached an all-time high near that time. There's still racism as well occurring because of our "tiny eyes". And also "rice". Those are some of the more common examples of racist remarks towards the Chinese.
Not to mention the type of food we mostly have. Most western foods are processed, fried, or served on a can, they won't even cook it if it says "pre-cooked"
as an Indian, when you mentioned India and a bunch of other south asian countries I audibly gasped. its like...a fourth wall being broken, considering the fact that most people are completely oblivious to south and west Asia being part of Asia. 😂
Blud your country is in south asia not southeast asia. Southeast asian countries would be like the Philippines, Vietnam, Thailand, Cambodia, Singapore, Malaysia, Brunei, etc.
@@HyperBorean-mf4ql I think it's great you don't generalize Asia, but many people do indeed forget about those countries. That's just the stereotypical Asia.
I’m South Korean. This is disturbing to the core. What the fuck. Most of us aren’t K-POP idols thank you very much. Our culture is about hard work, self discipline, self-control, making a life for yourself, and eventual enlightenment and self-actualization. It is NOT being “cute” and wearing weird accessories.
like honestly im british( my granddad was Scotish so i guess Quater scot?) but genuinly i just like the fashion and food of other countries its fun to see,i would never wanna change my race though.
If someone really wants to delve deep into Korean culture, they can learn the language, study the arts, history, and beliefs, apply to a Korean university. They can even visit, work, or live there on a visa. There are so many respectful ways to go about making another culture part of your life...and this is not one of them.
Being asian isn't about being "cutesy" and watching anime all day. There are many different types of cultures in Asia; the famous structures, the foods, the language, the art, the music, the history, the traditions, etc.
There’s Middle Eastern asian, then there’s India Asian (I don’t know what the name for those countries are) and then there’s the Asian that comes to mind when you think of Asian so you they aren’t all the same as you said (just wanted to clarify for anyone who came here :D)
I don't think necessarily, if they introduce themselves to new people with being korean or japanese and those people are decent and respectful people they will accept it (I mean how can you not accept the race of someone). I for example also tell people I am egyptian when they ask for my race or heritage, but I can't speak the language and I don't "look" typically egyptian either, but it doesn't change the fact that I am trough my parents and I am thankful for having friends who don't take that away from me just because of my looks and language and instead respect me (even my arab friends) I know that is a different situation than the one in the video, but I do think there are some similarities. Personally I don't see a problem with what these girls are doing as long as they are happy and respectful, it doesn't really hurt anyone, whatever floats your boat kind of thing, you don't really have to befriend them. But also I think it is to overthink if you gain happiness from random people getting laughed at and I wouldn't deem that as any better behaviour then what they are doing.
@@MrsRedMink yeah maybe i was being a bit harsh, and i see what you're saying, but i feel like the situations are a bit different of actually being part of a race/ethnicity and just pretending to achieve an "aesthetic". if someone were to respect the culture normally without claiming to have changed their race, that'd be a different story, it's good to respect other cultures. but i think the problem is within how they take an entire race and culture and boil it down to an aesthetic. I'm not asian so i can't say too much about it, but it feels incredibly ignorant for someone with barely any knowledge about the culture outside of like kpop and anime, as shown in the video, to claim themselves as that race to be "cute". i take back what i said about wanting them to be laughed at (and i edited my comment to be a little less harsh), because i think it's clear that these girls have an internal self-hatred and that's not something that should be fueled further, however i still heavily disagree with what they're doing

@@LadyOfTheNight.I think they tried to be quirky and wanted to blend in with the transgender folks by giving themselves a slur that JUST SO HAPPENS TO BE disturbingly similar to the trans slur I'm 100% sure they based the "rcta" concept off of what they thought the concept of transgender is, too
As an Asian, this hurts me so much with how little research they did. I'm not Korean but I am very into Korean culture, and it pains me to see them just summing Korea down as "kpop, kdrama, korean idols" 😭
Fr. I am Korean, but I feel the same. I'm dissapointed that these people think our culture is just Kpop, K drama, and looking cute. I bet these people can't point out anything about our culture except for Kpop lol

@@TheLonelyMoon damn that must be annoying, I’m Asian but have very little features (like no mono lids) but I do have the very slight almond shape in the crease of my eye. One time this girl said to me are you Asian or Chinese? And I just BURST OUT LAUGHING and her friend Told her her that it’s racist but I don’t think it’s racist to ask someone’s race I think it’s just curiosity. But honestly I think it’s pretty stupid that people always assume if you’re Asian u HAVE to watch anime and HAVE to listen to K-pop. Also I do think that some anime’s and K-pop’s are VERY fetishised when it comes too younger kids, but yeah I will stop now
I'm married to an East Asian lady and am currently still learning her family's language. It's a long road to learning the language, culture, customs etc. but it's also a lot of fun, very rewarding and highly recommended. I sit at my in-laws' table, use chopsticks like they do, appreciate the same food they do, speak (poorly) the same language they do, participate in their same traditional celebrations... ... and yet never once have I tried to literally be their ethnicity. I'm always a Westerner, just one who is broadening his horizons and who has an East Asian family by marriage. These wannabes are an insult to everything that East Asian cultures really are. A typical East Asian dad would disown any child acting like they do.
Thank you, my guy THANK YOU, I was gettin’ a bit depressed when people talk about Asia and it’s just the east😢😢But mentionin’ us in the south makes me so happy 5:53
My cousins are British/Japanese, and one time, a girl called Sophie came up to them and said she was RCTA (White to Japanese) and asked for pointers on how to become Japanese. Apparently, Sophie was suspended for it. They still bring the story up on Christmas Dinner
I'm asian and this is just.. super stereotypical and racist they think being asian is watching anime and listening to kpop and eating rice and ramen or smth💀
I’m Japanese and grew up being bullied for it. Now people online have Japanese usernames and fake names, even in a lot of video game lobbies. I don’t blame them for liking Japanese sounding names, but I just wish it was like this a decade ago when I was still in middle/high school so I wouldn’t get bullied for it lol now people say I have a cool name and at first I thought they were secretly laughing behind my back!
same me with being chinese. I got constantly insulted and bullied relentlessely by a guy who now studies chinese at my same university 😭 and he also laughed at me when he saw me like bitch you hypocrite
I’m Vietnamese (half) and it scares me to think that I will only be seen as a Smart Asian Kid, Busty Asian Woman or Cute Kawaii Asian Chick. I was heavily discriminated against for being Asian (although I’m not sure why students from the Phillipines, a country *pretty much next to mine* were safe from being threatened and laughed at) and now seeing people fetishising Asians, it makes my heart bleed. I’ve heard a couple of stories where people have gone to countries like Japan and had full on *existential crisises* because no one wears kimonos or uniforms and none of the teenagers were incredibly attractive like they are represented as in anime. I feel like Vietnam along with countries like India, Thailand, Pakistan, Mongolia, and Singapore are brushed aside because they’re “boring” (someone else’s words after I discussed this with them) and they don’t match the idealised aesthetic of Korea and Japan. If you want to learn about the values, culture, food, everyday life, or even politics of the country, go ahead. But just claiming to be Japanese or Korean because it’s “cute”, “desirable” or “special”… no one around you is gonna take you seriously.
I strongly agree with you. I'm South Asian and when I told people that I'm a South Asian they are gonna be like, "No, you aren't Asian because you're not Chinese or Korean." I mean Only Japan, Korea and China aren't the countries that fall within the Asian continent. There are Singapore, Thailand, India, Pakistan, Bhutan, Malaysia, Philippines, Nepal and many more. It won't be called as the largest continent if it had only 3 countries. And if you like their culture, values, foods, tradition you can just go on a tour or if you want to study there, yes, you absolutely can. But that doesn't make you Asian just because you feel connected to it. Claiming to be Asian just because it's "Cute" or "Special" is just stupid. Not every East Asian look like K-pop or those "cute" Asian influencers.
I agree. Like you're not oppressed, you're not wanted dead by people because of the way you feel, you're not illegal in 72 countries, and there aren't laws debating weather or not you deserve baisic human rights. It's disgusting they think it's okay to do that
that girl in the start probably watches kpop all the time and thinks "wow korea is so cool! im becoming korean!" and then she finds out how korean women actually live.
I like the fact that everyone who wanna be asian only admires the "kawaii" aspect of certain countries like south korea and Japan while theres alot of other amazing countries rich in culture and traditions. These people are so delusional that the line between reality and this illusion is blurred. They cant tell the difference and the sad thing is reality is far more disappointing than anime and kdramas. Being south korean or japanese is a nationality, but actually appreciating their cultures and traditions is dedication; might not make you one of them but you can still be accepted. I like asian cultures and listen to jpop and a little kpop (expanding my taste and learning about new cultures) but i dont wanna live in japan or south korea or even become one. Im interestedin their cultures and like learning of the religions of them as well as thailand
Not to mention it’s not all sunshine and rainbows. Their cultures are EXTREMELY socially oppressive, and emphasize conformity and a strong social hierarchy above all other values. Anime is basically Japanese escapism.
Honesty as much as I like Japan, that place is the very last place I would want to visit. The place seems so strict that one wrong move and everyone is judging you like you just commit a crime
They don't know 90% of the 'kawaii cute asian girls' on social media use ton of photoshop editing and makeup. they dont look like that in real life, trust me
haha japanese culture is so "kawaii"! Japanese culture still being extremely sexist: Japanese culture being forceful on everyone to live up to a certain level regardless of who you are or what you do: Japan having one of the highest suicide rates: Young japanese adults not reproducing nearly enough due to them working too much just to live up to a minimum: but yeah anime and jpop are cool i guess
I took part in an ethics bowl team in college, which is a competituon where you're given real life scenarios to analyze from an ethical perspective over the year, then there's a competition where you're asked a question about the case and have to make arguments against another team. We spent most of a semester trying to describe why trans-racial is different from transgender. It's so obvious, but so hard to explain.
to be honest, they are both changing fundemental physical traits assigned at birth/the perception of them, I think it simply just we have been desensitized to one and not the other so it seems like there is a large contrast its mainly because of that imo
how is it obvious? i'd argue that transgenderism is even more outrageous than transracialism because different genders have different brain structures, whereas brain structures in men are mostly the same regardless of race.
i'm an asian person and it just feels worrying that every RCTA thinks that the Asian community is full of anime-looking, beautiful people that only consists of only fictional characters and Southern Korean idols would look like. This just feels like they're stereotyping us in some unintentionally mocking way.
Not Asian but this is ridiculous, it's literally delusional....they are even watching videos to make themselves feel like it. It's really racist in a way that is mocking Asians, plus they think China, South Korea and Japan are the only countries. Why not be, for example Pakistani? Nooooo, because the stereotypes of "kawaii" or whatever.
Well I don’t even know lol,. But it’s an ancient Irish or Scottish name. All I know is that there was a princess named Aoife, and it’s also my dogs name! Me and my family are very Scottish, so we have names that don’t sound like they do.
As an Asian, i feel cringe to be asian now 🙂 There's this person on IG who called me "Unnie" (I'm not even Korean) she/he asked , "Unnie, are you Korean? You're so pretty
There’s a line between “transracial” cringe and feeling like you’re part of a country. For example, I’m Asian (from Hong Kong) and I moved to the UK and I feel like I am British (like I’m a British citizen) but my race will always be Asian and I’ll always be from HK
The first one when she says "our slur is ranny" (which isnt a real slur) is bs. You cant just create a slur for yourself, it starts as a nickname then **develops** as a slur.

It's funny how Vietnam is part of the cute kawaii stuff when in reality, we probably have the widest vocabulary of profanity and the most basic "fuck you" is reduced to a mom joke.

I never heard of people saying Vietnam is part of the cute culture, but it might be where I’m living in currently. People only know Vietnam as pho and banh mi here lol and I’m in Southern California with a dense Vietnamese population
Can we talk about how their 'slur' sounds a LOT like a certain communities slur? It's almost as if they're aware of the negative impact this has on the trans community but don't care because they just want to be 'special' and if it hurts the trans community in the process, oh well

Korean American here! I just, wow. I was adopted to two white parents before I even turned one, and they tried with all of their might to make sure I never pursued an interest in my Korean origins. As I grew up with all of my all-white peers treating being Asian as a joke, I came to resent the way that I looked and, to an extent, all things remotely Asian. Going away to college was the first time I was able to meet other people that looked like me and learn about cultural things I've missed out on. I've since tried to reclaim parts of the culture I was robbed of as it's like reclaiming a piece of me that was always supposed to be there; be it through language, music, media, and historical dives. I've been fascinated by what I've seen, heard and learned, and am excited to someday visit Seoul to see that city and country I was born in! Unfortunately, I was also introduced to the idea of Korean fetishization. People who idealize being a Korean to an unhealthy degree and summing the entire culture up essentially as either an infantilized/cutesy culture where people are fragile porcelain dolls or BTS. It hurts when people tell me that I don't LOOK like a real Korean compared to their favorite K-Pop group. Bruh, I was born in Seoul. But it also makes me feel gross when I tell someone I'm Korean and they start salivating at the thought they're meeting "a real Korean," like I'm no longer a human, I'm just the subject of their weird, dehumanizing obsession. In short, please, PLEASE don't be an RCTA. It's harmful to try and claim culture and genetics (like, wtf) that were never yours to begin with. It just stigmatizes learning the culture entirely as cringe. As such, it only stands to makes it harder for people like me to try and reclaim what we've lost without a tainted sense of shame and embarrassment.
I personally think it’s fine to take interest in a culture that’s not your own or even wanting to participate in that culture. Just saying this cuz the last part seemed like it wasn’t with this belief (in case it feels like I’m reiterating your statements) I 100% agree with the rest tho
Oh wow I’m the same. I’ve been adopted by French parents tho but same they’ve not been really into showing me stuff from SK, so I had to use the internet. Everything you wrote is something I could’ve written myself. It’s a bit weird to read about so many similar experiences. Especially… the fetishization… and the problem with beauty standards… Btw just in case: the association InKAS (Korean adoptees) offer a yearly one or two weeks long summer camp for South Korean adoptees wanting to visit the motherland. It is free! Look it up :) I personally didn’t have the chance to participate because of work but I know some people who did and they had a lot of fun!
@@SisselSashaI feel as if why they don’t show you the other culture is a pretty easy answer. They adopted you from a different country because they wanted you to grow up in a safer and likeminded culture as they’re own
Then that’s their problem if they think that you’re like these people trying to change their race (which you’re not). I think it’s wonderful that you’re learning a new language to learn more about the Japanese culture :).
No, I don't think most people will think you're like that. This is the first time I've ever heard of this, really. When people tell me they want to learn different languages, I think that's cool. Never be afraid to expand your horizons, and as long as you approach other cultures with respect and wanting to learn and honor it, most people from those cultures are really happy to help you learn!
I’m Vietnamese (mom AND dad are vietnamese), and transgender (FTM) This is very scary Edit: Thanks to TTs like these, I felt incredibly insecure (ik so weird) about myself.

Our culture is about hard work, self discipline, self-control, making a life for yourself, and eventual enlightenment and self-actualization. It is NOT being “cute” and wearing weird accessories.

If someone really wants to delve deep into Korean culture, they can learn the language, study the arts, history, and beliefs, apply to a Korean university. They can even visit, work, or live there on a visa. There are so many respectful ways to go about making another culture part of your life...and this is not one of them.

Being asian isn't about being "cutesy" and watching anime all day. There are many different types of cultures in Asia; the famous structures, the foods, the language, the art, the music, the history, the traditions, etc.
There’s Middle Eastern asian, then there’s India Asian (I don’t know what the name for those countries are) and then there’s the Asian that comes to mind when you think of Asian so you they aren’t all the same as you said (just wanted to clarify for anyone who came here :D)

@@edgeflame8276It's only natural considering the things happening in this world
I don't think necessarily, if they introduce themselves to new people with being korean or japanese and those people are decent and respectful people they will accept it (I mean how can you not accept the race of someone). I for example also tell people I am egyptian when they ask for my race or heritage, but I can't speak the language and I don't "look" typically egyptian either, but it doesn't change the fact that I am trough my parents and I am thankful for having friends who don't take that away from me just because of my looks and language and instead respect me (even my arab friends)
I know that is a different situation than the one in the video, but I do think there are some similarities. Personally I don't see a problem with what these girls are doing as long as they are happy and respectful, it doesn't really hurt anyone, whatever floats your boat kind of thing, you don't really have to befriend them.
But also I think it is to overthink if you gain happiness from random people getting laughed at and I wouldn't deem that as any better behaviour then what they are doing.
fr stupid rannies
@@MrsRedMink yeah maybe i was being a bit harsh, and i see what you're saying, but i feel like the situations are a bit different of actually being part of a race/ethnicity and just pretending to achieve an "aesthetic". if someone were to respect the culture normally without claiming to have changed their race, that'd be a different story, it's good to respect other cultures. but i think the problem is within how they take an entire race and culture and boil it down to an aesthetic. I'm not asian so i can't say too much about it, but it feels incredibly ignorant for someone with barely any knowledge about the culture outside of like kpop and anime, as shown in the video, to claim themselves as that race to be "cute".
i take back what i said about wanting them to be laughed at (and i edited my comment to be a little less harsh), because i think it's clear that these girls have an internal self-hatred and that's not something that should be fueled further, however i still heavily disagree with what they're doing

I was heavily discriminated against for being Asian (although I’m not sure why students from the Phillipines, a country *pretty much next to mine* were safe from being threatened and laughed at) and now seeing people fetishising Asians, it makes my heart bleed. I’ve heard a couple of stories where people have gone to countries like Japan and had full on *existential crisises* because no one wears kimonos or uniforms and none of the teenagers were incredibly attractive like they are represented as in anime. I feel like Vietnam along with countries like India, Thailand, Pakistan, Mongolia, and Singapore are brushed aside because they’re “boring” (someone else’s words after I discussed this with them) and they don’t match the idealised aesthetic of Korea and Japan. If you want to learn about the values, culture, food, everyday life, or even politics of the country, go ahead. But just claiming to be Japanese or Korean because it’s “cute”, “desirable” or “special”… no one around you is gonna take you seriously.

@@azial8989 Yeah, I find that common with me, my mother and family compared to my Phillipina friends and their families.
I strongly agree with you. I'm South Asian and when I told people that I'm a South Asian they are gonna be like, "No, you aren't Asian because you're not Chinese or Korean." I mean Only Japan, Korea and China aren't the countries that fall within the Asian continent. There are Singapore, Thailand, India, Pakistan, Bhutan, Malaysia, Philippines, Nepal and many more. It won't be called as the largest continent if it had only 3 countries. And if you like their culture, values, foods, tradition you can just go on a tour or if you want to study there, yes, you absolutely can. But that doesn't make you Asian just because you feel connected to it. Claiming to be Asian just because it's "Cute" or "Special" is just stupid. Not every East Asian look like K-pop or those "cute" Asian influencers.

These people are so delusional that the line between reality and this illusion is blurred. They cant tell the difference and the sad thing is reality is far more disappointing than anime and kdramas. Being south korean or japanese is a nationality, but actually appreciating their cultures and traditions is dedication; might not make you one of them but you can still be accepted. I like asian cultures and listen to jpop and a little kpop (expanding my taste and learning about new cultures) but i dont wanna live in japan or south korea or even become one. Im interestedin their cultures and like learning of the religions of them as well as thailand

We spent most of a semester trying to describe why trans-racial is different from transgender. It's so obvious, but so hard to explain.
Trans Racial isn't real, the delusion is crazy.
What was your conclusion?
to be honest, they are both changing fundemental physical traits assigned at birth/the perception of them, I think it simply just we have been desensitized to one and not the other so it seems like there is a large contrast its mainly because of that imo
Sometimes it's the obvious things that are hard to explain, I feel u man
how is it obvious? i'd argue that transgenderism is even more outrageous than transracialism because different genders have different brain structures, whereas brain structures in men are mostly the same regardless of race.

As for someone who listens to subliminals for funsies, I have always stayed thousand miles away from subliminals like "look Korean" "get adopted into a rich korean family" "get a hot korean husband/wife" LIKE HELLO??? FETISHIZING MUCH???
💀💀💀
wait there are SUBLIMINALS TO GET ADOPTED IN A DIFFERENT FAMILY...?? AND GET A HOT KOREAN SPOUSE??? excuse me WHAT IS GOING ON IN THEIR IMAGINATIONS I may have a lot of weird things going on in my head but WHAT.
@@cacaronimeeseetparbonaracasta RIGHT THAT'S HOW MY REACTION WAS..
And honestly speaking I really didn't knew how I felt going through the comments where they would be criticizing their own culture, family and all that and the feeding of delusions are overdosed.
@@yuisannofficial709 unless their families are actually assholes then they don't have the right to criticize you AND THEY SHOULD BE PROUD OF THEIR CULTURE BRO 😭😭😭
@@cacaronimeeseetparbonaracasta EXACTLY LIKE I UNDERSTAND IF YOUR FAMILY IS TOXIC OR SOMETHING BUT NONETHELESS WHY WOULD YOU THINK THAT YOUR LIFE WOULD GET BETTER IF YOU GET ADOPTED BY A 'KOREAN' FAMILY? LIFE AIN'T WATTPAD😭😭
Idk much about Korean culture tbh buy ik that Korean life ain't about being Kpop yk... and I bet there are better people in the world than the Korean people they wanna marry ☠️
Get this guy to 1 mil. He ate a dorito vertically, strapped a jet engine to his computer, and exposed people who fake disorders.
He hit 1 Million subscribers! :)
buddy do i have news for you
I’m glad your wish came true.
Aye it happened, the mad man did it!
he stepped on lego too.. what a hero
The text that appears at 5:01 reads: "all my korean family members are probably rolling in their graves rn, including the living"
Omg a TH-camr with my name!!
Korean American here! I just, wow. I was adopted to two white parents before I even turned one, and they tried with all of their might to make sure I never pursued an interest in my Korean origins. As I grew up with all of my all-white peers treating being Asian as a joke, I came to resent the way that I looked and, to an extent, all things remotely Asian. Going away to college was the first time I was able to meet other people that looked like me and learn about cultural things I've missed out on. I've since tried to reclaim parts of the culture I was robbed of as it's like reclaiming a piece of me that was always supposed to be there; be it through language, music, media, and historical dives. I've been fascinated by what I've seen, heard and learned, and am excited to someday visit Seoul to see that city and country I was born in!
Unfortunately, I was also introduced to the idea of Korean fetishization. People who idealize being a Korean to an unhealthy degree and summing the entire culture up essentially as either an infantilized/cutesy culture where people are fragile porcelain dolls or BTS. It hurts when people tell me that I don't LOOK like a real Korean compared to their favorite K-Pop group. Bruh, I was born in Seoul. But it also makes me feel gross when I tell someone I'm Korean and they start salivating at the thought they're meeting "a real Korean," like I'm no longer a human, I'm just the subject of their weird, dehumanizing obsession.
In short, please, PLEASE don't be an RCTA. It's harmful to try and claim culture and genetics (like, wtf) that were never yours to begin with. It just stigmatizes learning the culture entirely as cringe. As such, it only stands to makes it harder for people like me to try and reclaim what we've lost without a tainted sense of shame and embarrassment.
White imperialism and it's consequences
I personally think it’s fine to take interest in a culture that’s not your own or even wanting to participate in that culture. Just saying this cuz the last part seemed like it wasn’t with this belief (in case it feels like I’m reiterating your statements)
I 100% agree with the rest tho
@@localcookingutensil But GENETICS? Come on, did I study biology for nothing?
Oh wow I’m the same. I’ve been adopted by French parents tho but same they’ve not been really into showing me stuff from SK, so I had to use the internet. Everything you wrote is something I could’ve written myself. It’s a bit weird to read about so many similar experiences. Especially… the fetishization… and the problem with beauty standards…
Btw just in case: the association InKAS (Korean adoptees) offer a yearly one or two weeks long summer camp for South Korean adoptees wanting to visit the motherland. It is free! Look it up :) I personally didn’t have the chance to participate because of work but I know some people who did and they had a lot of fun!
@@SisselSashaI feel as if why they don’t show you the other culture is a pretty easy answer. They adopted you from a different country because they wanted you to grow up in a safer and likeminded culture as they’re own
this is why i'm scared to tell people i'm learning japanese they gon think i'm like that💀💀💀
Same 💀
Then that’s their problem if they think that you’re like these people trying to change their race (which you’re not). I think it’s wonderful that you’re learning a new language to learn more about the Japanese culture :).
No, I don't think most people will think you're like that. This is the first time I've ever heard of this, really. When people tell me they want to learn different languages, I think that's cool. Never be afraid to expand your horizons, and as long as you approach other cultures with respect and wanting to learn and honor it, most people from those cultures are really happy to help you learn!
only if you are white though
Same here.
I’m Vietnamese (mom AND dad are vietnamese), and transgender (FTM)
This is very scary
Edit:
Thanks to TTs like these, I felt incredibly insecure (ik so weird) about myself. I live in America, and have for my whole life. My parents are Vietnamese, and spoke Cantonese (dad spoke english). Both lived in America (dad first), and dad has taught me American culture primarily. My mom teaches me Vietnamese culture.
Back in like- 2022, before I actually went to Vietnam to visit family, I remember looking at my skin, and thinking back to all those TTs (especially RCTA, bc people pick the traits they want or think are attractive) and being sad that my skin wasn’t all that pale. I remember looking into the mirror and not being happy that I don’t have mono-lids, and so on, and so forth. I was so confused about my own culture because of stuff like this that I thought I wasn’t pretty enough to be Asian-
Ik it sounds dumb like- I’m surrounded by Vietnamese people (my family) and I thought I wasn’t pretty bc of some TTs?? It sounds so absurd, ik- but it happened sooo
Vc stronk together
5:15 that’s called lack of sleep
i showed some of these videos to my japanese boyfriend and he started crying on the spot 💀
fr?
@@Ghaith-pg1js yeah bro 😭😭
@@aebowee I mean he kinda is right these mfs give me a headache
Yo is his brain cells still there?
@@xrvrllx ngl I’m not sure…
find it absolutely hilarious how advice for "becoming asian" is listening to asian music, or eating asian foods or learning asian languages. i do all three of those to some extent and im one of the most plain americans you can find out on the street. also love that you mentioned places like india that are still in asia, fucking love how well you talked about this man, great video
ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
Best conclusion I’ve ever heard
I thought this wasn't your usual type of content?
I was born an indigenous Canadian and still am, I could never change my race or my body structure just for views and popularity. Just try to love your body the way it is, your race is part of who you are and you shouldn't ever treat it like it's not. ❤
Preach! Also what is indigenous canadian? If you don’t mind me asking 😅
@@noranizaazmi6523do some research
@@noranizaazmi6523 I am Metis, I am native to Canada and have a mixed ancestry. Quite a bit of my family is European and the rest are aboriginal, so I would be considered as mixed. If you want to know more about indigenous culture and our traditions then you could search it up and find a website.
@@noranizaazmi6523 in Canada they have indigenous (First Nations, Métis and Inuit) people. They are the original inhabitants of what is now called Canada. They were here way before Europeans came to settle there. hope that helps!
@@WhitneyNechi METIS WOOHOO!!
I’m Moroccan and have pale-ish tan-ish skin brown hair and green eyes and when we were in class we were doing a “where are you from?” Thingy and when I put Morocco (a country in Africa) half the class got really upset and accused me for lying Africa isn’t just Kenya, Sudan, and other stereotypical countries in Africa just like how Asia isn’t only china, Japan, Korea
Ugh people are so ignorant. Like it’s actually kind of scary how the general public has no concept of history or geography.
Btw you sound beautiful, I wish I had green eyes.
A friend of mine (Tunisian) and I (Turkish) have the exact same problem. We're both mixed and pretty pale and we've both heard from multiple people that we can't be African and Asian, that we're not a *real* African/Asian. Because she's not black and I don't have monolids (...why would we?). People are painfully ignorant.
@@bleehh that sounds so annoying to put up with I’m sorry
So I can claim to be a 6’3 black dude and everyone is supposed to say it’s “valid”?
thats like being born a wardrobe but saying youre a fridge
btw the text at 5:01 says all my korean family members are probably rolling in there grave rn even the alive ones.
bro thank you so much
I really feel the korean coming inside of me
I love you
TYSM I HAD SUCH A HARD TIME TRYING PAUSE ON IT BUT I COULDN’T NO MATTER WHAT IT FLASHED TOO FAST
