Do fall into the typical Asian male stereotype?

[Cipherous]

Off the top of my head and what I remember from my Asian American studies class

Stereotypes aboutl Asian male characteristics

-Quiet
-Not outspoken
-Studies hard at school
-Shy around the ladies
-un-emotional

Please add your thoughts and comments

[ChinaLama]

i'm very loud although i am pretty shy and quiet around strangers. But I'm used to talking louder than other ppl.

[AliBabaIncorporated]

huh? the Asian guy stereotypes I know of are like tries to be a hardass, always travels in packs, wears too much cologne, dressed like he's going clubbing when he's just going to the library, talks in the library instead of studying, etc. and there were lots of them at my university.

[hooligan]

Yea, it's like stereotyping all white guys as having a frat boy mentality.

[golden_buns]

Yea, it's like stereotyping all white guys as having a frat boy mentality.

More like stereotyping all white guys into frat boys or white trash

well the odd thing is, those are actually the persians at ucla.

hahahaha, so true. I went once with a friend to register classes at Glendale Community College on a monday morning and all of the Armenian girls looked like they were going for a friday night party

mmmmmmmmm Armenian women ^^

I dunno what it is about them. Maybe it's the Georgian nose. Or maybe it's 'cause they look like exotic white people.

Ok sorry that was out of line.

hmm let me assess that checklist to myself:

Quiet.....well I do tend to be more of a loner....

Not outspoken.....nah....whats the use....people who chatter too much annoy me anyways

Studies hard at school......lol if only that were true....I would be an engineering major if I did that

Shy around ladies.....maybe not shy, but not smooth, which doesn't make up for anything :P

Un-emotional.....well I tend to stay away from drama and other people's business so there is not much to get emotional about...

[Sledge]

I go out of my way to avoid the AM stereotype, but fail on two counts:

1) I can't help some of them, and
2) I end up falling into reverse-stereotypes.

For instance.
1a) I'm a CS major.
1b) I go to an Ivy League university. (But not Harvard! Woo!)
1c) I aced my SATs first try.
1d) I have glasses. (Okay, so they're emo glasses [from before I ever heard about emo, bub], but eyewear is eyewear.)
1e) I used to play piano and cello.
1f) I don't know if I'm unemotional. It probably seems like it; I'm good at distracting myself from them when I feel I need to be analytical.
1g) I sometimes need to force myself to be social, and get really quiet when tired.
1h) I play DDR. Oh, the shame. THE SHAME.

2a) I crack perverted jokes and have a potty mouth. I think a lot of Asians do this to break away from the polite-lil'-model-minority thing; I can't tell how much of it is my own sick sense of humor and how much is me presenting a social mask. STEREOTYPING DOES THIS TO YOU, KIDS. SADNESS.
2b) I dress in black, own a leather jacket, have a scarf that never leaves my neck.
2c) I play acoustic guitar and electric bass, which is kind of the rebellious-AzN thing to do once they stop playing violin/viola/cello. And I sing. Badly.

Can't win.

On the plus side!
- I converse equally well with men and women.
- My girlfriend is white. (And when I asked, pissily, if that made a "sell-out," on mm.com, they said no: as an AM dating a WF I'm "empowered." Racist, assumptuous fucks.)
- I'm not actually that smart. Just good at pretending. GO DUMB AZN KIDS!
- I'm a writer. Heh. "Writer." Everyone's a damn writer nowadays. But for real, I try, and I want to make a living off of it.
- Most importantly, I don't breakdance. (But man, if I could get someone to teach me popping and locking, I'd be all the fuck over that.)

[Napoleon Chynamite]

1b) I go to an Ivy League university. (But not Harvard! Woo!)
1c) I aced my SATs first try.

wtf I hate you

[Sledge]

i velly solly!

[mrazntre]

armeniams aren't persians!


some are.

[golden_buns]

as an AM dating a WF I'm "empowered." Racist, assumptuous fucks.)


HAHAHAHAHAHA

[Sledge]

Oh shit, are you from over there?

[golden_buns]

Oh shit, are you from over there?

No, but I lurked over there every once in a while.
I find that ideal to be funny. How's that supposed to empower us?

[moJo]

No, but I lurked over there every once in a while.
I find that ideal to be funny. How's that supposed to empower us?
supposedly, it's a big ol' F-U to white men. or to 'sellout' asian women. i dunno, somethin like that.

[Sledge]

Ahaha. I have no idea. I think their explanation was, like, "Since whites occupy a higher social status here, dating a white girl imbues you with that social status." (But with worse spelling.) Of course, when an Asian girl dates a white guy, she's a traitor to her race! Since, you know, people only date for status and all.

But yeah. We could start another thread about this if you want to discuss it further. Don't want to threadjack this one.

[golden_buns]

supposedly, it's a big ol' F-U to white men. or to 'sellout' asian women. i dunno, somethin like that.

Or maybe they think they're saying F-U when the rest have more important things to worry about other than thinking; "oh we're losing our women, or oh we're losing our men"

[golden_buns]

I think all this debate on WM/AF has also created new stereotypes on asians.

AMs are bitter, and AFs prefer WMs exclusively.

I once had the pleasure of talking to some white guy at goldsea who came trying to be condescending to AMs by giving us advice on how to hit on women (jackass didn't get a thing right on that), and who kept on claiming that it was natural for AFs to prefer WMs rather than asians or other ethnicities, basing on what his 'girl' (some chinese american girl) told him.

the funny thing is that I saw the same guy trying to do the same thing at MM.com months later. I can tell he spent a lot of time with his 'girl'

[golden_buns]

(But with worse spelling.) Of course, when an Asian girl dates a white guy, she's a traitor to her race! Since, you know, people only date for status and all.


It's better to think; innocent until he/she is found guilty. Claiming that someone is a sellout just for that fact that he/she is with a non-asian says nothing.
All this pre-emptive judgement creates more anger and bitterness.

[SunWuKong]

studies hard at school...?

HAHHAHHAHHAHHHAHHAH!!!

Are you discussing my favorite forum, mm.com?

Yes, you are correct, the spelling and grammar would be far, far, worse ;)

The WF love/hate relationship. On the one hand, it is empowering to bag a White chick. OTOH, any White chick openly admits to chasing or wanting to chase Asian guys is an Asiaphiliac pig. WTF logic is that?

(Not to knock everyone there. There are some intelligent posters too.)

You're right, the armenian girls I've seen must've been fake. They probably shaved too.

Ok honestly, I've only met three or four armenian women in my life, (and three of them were related, I found out the very very hard way) but my opinion still stands cause hey what else do I have to go off of? Well before my posts get deleted, I should probably stay on topic, as important as my tangent is...

So yeah, I dunno, although I'm not like the exact opposite of the asian male stereotype, I'm pretty darn far off in so many different ways it's not even funny. Asian guys who call me 'white boy' or 'twinkie' don't even know how far off I am from the typical 'white boy' stereotype or mold either. I don't think I was cut out for anything.....I don't belong..*sniff*

1. no. I had an asshole stage though. Does that count?
2. I don't drive a car. no
3. Nope. I couldn't care less. I just want anything to drive me around. no
4. Like on foot? Hell no.
5. again, no.
6. I'm an idiot on the comp. I'm no better versed in computers than anyone else here. no
7. I play games, but no systems. Usually at a friend's house. no.
8. HAHAHA. What kinda bullshit is that? Soul Caliber man!!!! no.
9. Cartoons?? I can draw three circles connected to each other, color it in, and say it's the back of mickey mouse's head. yes.
10. Who the hell hasn't? Not a strictly asian thing. yes.
11. I played Trumpet in middle school. Now I'm learning guitar. so yes.
12. Nope. I just got bad grades. And I wasn't anything but a wallflower. no.
13. YES. :biggrin:
14. I'm going to a junior college right now. OOOH... good school! no.
15. Which parent doesn't want that for their kid? Right now my parents just want me to transfer. yes.
16. Never smoked a cig in my life. no.
17. Nope. That's Yao Ming man. no.

5 yes out of 17. I don't hold up to the asian sterotype. :frown:

[ChinaLama]

10 and 13 apply to me the most strongly. 14 and 15 somewhat apply. The others-- I don't smoke, I don't play musical instruments, I was never in chorus or whatever, I don't drive, I suck at sports, and I wasn't a good student in elementary school (in 5th grade, while my teacher was talking, i was writing stories at my desk and completely not paying attention. :D) I did somewhat become a clown in hs, but not *the* class clown. :)

Anyway-- don't want to start a flame war, but how is that big list of "asian stereotypes" different from say: suburban whites or suburban blacks? i'm sure plenty of suburban whites and blacks try to be gangsta, love cars, have musical talent, think they're the shit at sports esp basketball, whose parents want them to be doctors or lawyers (sorries, you forgot businessmen :-)), and go to very good schools.

[BigLew]

- Quiet? No
- Not outspoken? Hell No
- Studies hard at school? Hate school dropped out at 16 went back a year later and finished, never went to college
- Shy around the ladies? No, even at times I should be.
- un-emotional? Only when I'm not being a little bitch.

[Emperor_Mike]

Some, but not all. Mostly the academic stereotypes, I suppose. I study hard, go to a top five law school in the UK, am confident of going to Harvard for my LLM, never received a mark lower than 92% in secondary school, etc. As for the rest (quiet, meek and what have you) I think I've missed my mark. :biggrin:

Ok, as much as I hate stereotypes, a lot of those are true :frown:

[shy]

huh? the Asian guy stereotypes I know of are like tries to be a hardass, always travels in packs, wears too much cologne, dressed like he's going clubbing when he's just going to the library, talks in the library instead of studying, etc. and there were lots of them at my university.

there's more then one set of stereotypes of an asian male/female. often, if find that they are extremes of one another. while the initial post described one of the more 'traditional' generalization of the 'studious, hard working asian,' yours demonstrates the younger, badass, clubbing generation.

regardless, it's still a generalization though albiet a newer one then the traditional description given.

I can't stand most asian guys involved with racing or the asian hop hop scenesters. You know the ebonics talking, visor wearing, rave going, barely literate chimps. The ones who tAlk *~~ oN tHe Net LiKe Dis Boo!~~* The ones I see frequent cafes here and hang out in cliques. Mainly a gaggle of 10 "thug life" guys and 3 bootied up girls who go to the same shitty clubs every weekend for their daily dose of primitivism.

Ok, not all of them are like that but it's become a bit of a valley cliche here.

[damashii]

I think the typical asian male stereotype is just that a stereotype, a broad generalization often in a negative connotation. there is nothing wrong with those attributes. Its just the nature of the times for most people to have an outlet of superiority (Especially in western/american culture). Just look at the television shows, The talk shows, and reality shows. People watch them to feel better about themselves, because most of the people on those shows have ugly personalities, or get what they want, etc. and it makes people subconsciously idolize, or judge others. I think the whole question is wrong. It should be why do we care so much what others think about us? What makes us unique?

There is strength in solidarity. Quick story. I had a professor who most people would consider the typical asian, to make a long story short he was a Former Special forces operator (Green beret). Very kind and soft spoken, but once I got to know him there was a deep reservoir of spirit and professionalism. He was about 5'6" and 135 lbs of pure determination. They do some tough sh*t, enough to make any grown man weep for mercy.

Because we fall so heavily under the influence of judgementalism in our case western culture, it is easy for people to maintain the status quo and keep us "inline".

Asians in the past have discovered the secret to life long ago, and it slips by us because it doesnt give us instant gratification. Its the inner spirit, the human spirit that matters most.

In conclusion,
What ever you do, what every you like, f*ck em. In a nice quiet way of course.

[darkguard]

I go out of my way to avoid the AM stereotype, but fail on two counts:
1) I can't help some of them, and
2) I end up falling into reverse-stereotypes.
For instance.
1a) I'm a CS major.
1b) I go to an Ivy League university. (But not Harvard! Woo!)
1c) I aced my SATs first try.
1d) I have glasses. (Okay, so they're emo glasses [from before I ever heard about emo, bub], but eyewear is eyewear.)
1e) I used to play piano and cello.
1f) I don't know if I'm unemotional. It probably seems like it; I'm good at distracting myself from them when I feel I need to be analytical.
1g) I sometimes need to force myself to be social, and get really quiet when tired.
1h) I play DDR. Oh, the shame. THE SHAME.
2a) I crack perverted jokes and have a potty mouth. I think a lot of Asians do this to break away from the polite-lil'-model-minority thing; I can't tell how much of it is my own sick sense of humor and how much is me presenting a social mask. STEREOTYPING DOES THIS TO YOU, KIDS. SADNESS.
2b) I dress in black, own a leather jacket, have a scarf that never leaves my neck.
2c) I play acoustic guitar and electric bass, which is kind of the rebellious-AzN thing to do once they stop playing violin/viola/cello. And I sing. Badly.
Can't win.
On the plus side!
- I converse equally well with men and women.
- My girlfriend is white. (And when I asked, pissily, if that made a "sell-out," on mm.com, they said no: as an AM dating a WF I'm "empowered." Racist, assumptuous fucks.)
- I'm not actually that smart. Just good at pretending. GO DUMB AZN KIDS!
- I'm a writer. Heh. "Writer." Everyone's a damn writer nowadays. But for real, I try, and I want to make a living off of it.
- Most importantly, I don't breakdance. (But man, if I could get someone to teach me popping and locking, I'd be all the fuck over that.)

Yes ! I am also so whitey and pure

[mrazntre]

I think the typical asian male stereotype is just that a stereotype, a broad generalization often in a negative connotation. there is nothing wrong with those attributes.

I'm quite sure you meant to say generalizations or stereotypes rather than "attributes" because by saying attributes, those generalizations wouldn't just be generalizations, it'd be true.

[damashii]

No. Because someone asian might be quiet, shy, or good at math, etc,
and are judged based on those attributes. The judging part is the stereotype not the attributes themselves.

[d4sman]

No, no I don't...haha...I'm not shy, I'm no quite, I'm not a straight A student...etc...etc...

[Chris]

[COLOR=DarkSlateGray][SIZE=2][FONT=Arial]the typical asian sterotype....
*note* yes i know not all guys are like this... but at least if you're asian you can relate to and say yes to some of these...

11.they did something musical... (learned the piano, sang in the chior,etc...) yeah
12.they did well in school... up untill elem.. and then they hit puberty.. and then started being the class clown.. or gangsta - I was neither
13.they know how to make fun of people really well - nope
14.they get into really good schools... or at least their parents push them too... and the say to you... "look!! ASIAN PERSON... see you can do that too!!" - NOPE
15.they become either doctors or lawyers...or at least their parents want them too. - Legal industry yeah

[torque]

Unlike you all I fit into the stereotype proudly
not like those white wannabes
I am good at math, I study a lot, I don't dance
But I don't dye my hair brownred though
It makes you look like asian girl

[mrazntre]

No. Because someone asian might be quiet, shy, or good at math, etc,
and are judged based on those attributes. The judging part is the stereotype not the attributes themselves.

oic. i read it wrong.

the "those" was what was ambigious to me.

[BaiginLong]

I am definitely too loud at times so heh need to work on that

I tend to be clumsier around the girls I like though I have no trouble making friends with alot of them at a time
errr unemotional... well I have to say that yes I am emotional (I cried watching Les Miserables) but I try to keep a front in public

I go out of my way to avoid the AM stereotype, but fail on two counts:

1) I can't help some of them, and

his special "love" button.

[TTChino]

you mean the second belly button?

Is it an innie or an outie?

[deez nuts]

i'd give it the benefit of the doubt and call it an outie since an innie can be construed as a mangina.

[applehead]

his special "love" button.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

[mrazntre]

or mebbe that really is his mangina?

[Ogumo]

My friend always i am stereotypical. Oh well we are what we are.

[sdcheung]

Yes..
I get verrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrry horny!

[frustratedasian]

Here is my two cent.

I am quiet in class, and I do study hard. Reason:

I am quiet because I don't like to complain or talk about shit I don't care about or relate to. I can't even remeber when was the last time I related to the stuff that white people talk about. I don't watch Friend and I don't shop at the Gap and I don't listen to Mainstream music or punk band. All I care about is my A. That's is going to be there till I am graduate and hopefully get me fucking job. Not the damn teacher or the students. Discussion doesn't teach me shit.

I study hard, because I don't like cleaning shit up for a living. My parent's not rich. So if I don't study hard, what the fuck can I do as an Asian guy with no credential. Nothing.

Unemotional -- I am not fucking gay.

There you a good reply to those fucking stereotypes.

[John0101]

I think the media had a role in my sense of my identity, there were never any asian role models except Bruce Lee which I never related too. But I think my stereotypical asian characteristics were largely created by my parents and our household.



Unemotional -- I am not fucking gay.



thats not cool man

what does gay have to do with unemotional?

I thought ALL guys no matter what their race were 'unemotional.'

[yoMAMA]

Well, i do wear gigantic eyeglasses......

so i suppose i did my part to keep the asian guy stereotype alive and well........ :rolleyes:
