we are more "beige" than yellow. under certain lighting, our skins do look yellow at times haha. some people do get offended by it, but people dont just assign a random colour.. so i am guessing yellow is the closet colour to describe asians.. i dont think they literally mean we are "yellow", so we shouldn't be too upset about it.

why do ppl automatically think chinese ppl are ricers(posers)? lol

Joekerr · 07-22-2008, 12:27 PM

It is due to the large intake of rice in your diets.

why can't you tolerate alcohol? sorry if I'm generalising a bit, but my asian friends tend to go overboard with very small quantities...

kenneth · 07-22-2008, 12:48 PM

Definitely generalising, especially given the number of asians, like at least 2 billion lol?

An estimated one-third of persons of East Asian[dubious – discuss] and Native American descent have an alcohol flush reaction, a condition where the body cannot break down ingested alcohol completely because it lacks the genetically coded enzyme that performs this function in the bodies of drinkers with "normal" tolerance levels. Flushing, or blushing, is associated with the erythema (reddening caused by dilation of capillaries) of the face, neck, and shoulder, after consumption of alcohol.[2]

Most Asain girls that I have seen or met are damn near gorgous

fjc335i · 07-22-2008, 01:31 PM

why is it ok to call an asian yellow but not ok to call an african american black?

Desi · 07-22-2008, 01:55 PM

Why do you guys take the entire continents name and apply it to yourself? I'm Indian, and damnit, I'm Asian too!

really? i don't see how it's offensive to call a black person black... people try to be politically correct by calling them "african american", but what if they're canadian, or live anywhere else in the world? african american only refers to black people who are AMERICAN, but a lot of people still call them that regardless of whether they're actually american or not. politically correct my ass.

I just have a general observation here (not directed at you because I don't know anything about you). "White" people seem to have a different take on beauty when they look at asian girls. I often see white guys with chicks that are really ugly in the eyes of another asian.
