Re: what \"asian\" means to you
casino asians (I'm thinking about the $10 paigow tables at commerce/bike) are different from the quiet straight A asian...
but there are also the "better luck tomorrow" asians that could get away with anything.... (there were alot of them at my high school) |

what "asian" means to you [/ QUOTE ] People perceive you by your looks - if you look Asian and play like a maniac you are a Crazian. If you look white and play like a maniac you get a different response. So either you have slanty eyes or you don't. WTF is the dilemma ? |

Re: what \"asian\" means to you
The stereotype in the West is of how Asians are percieved here, not how they act in Asia. I agree that gamblers view Asian in a completely different light than non-gamblers.
I think the guy was just trying to say "You're too [censored] Midwestern to be a crazy degenerate LAG". He was also, in his own way, trying to let you know that he thought you belonged there and didn't consider you an outsider. |

I thought this thread was going to be about East vs. South Asians (Indians)...

Re: what \"asian\" means to you
I'm half White, half native Pacific Islander, but I look really Irish and "act" like a typical Whiteboy.
Probably because when I say I'm half-Pacific Islander, I really mean that my Irish-American mom was born in Hawai'i before it was a United State of America. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] This probably doesn't help much. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] I've got a couple half-Asian friends. One is Irish/Korean and another is Yugoslavian/Korean. They both look more Asian than White and most people don't even know they are half White. I'm not sure how they act. They act like people. Sometimes I do wonder if they have an "identity" issue because maybe Asians see them as White and Whites see them as Asian, but I've never brought it up (because if they did have an issue with it I certainly don't want to fuel it and put more thoughts in their head). |
