If they are black - "You don't like KFC/Watermelons/Ghetto booty/tribal music/Xbox? But you're black!"

If they are white - "You don't like Simple Plan/NASCAR/Keith Urban/Missy Higgins/Emo people/Scene people/Homosexual marriages/Xbox? But you're white!"

All races can get the same treatment. Keywords being "all" and "can".

I didn't say they don't. I'm just pointing out how annoying stereotypes can be, though everyone knows already. Bleh. Stupid stereotypes. *Kicks it* :[

I'm just saying that you can hit back just as hard as you get it.

Just one last night,
I want to hold you tight...

QUESTING!

At my school, the majority of the student body is/are asian.
There's a lot of Asian wannabes.
All of them like anime, even though a lot of the real Asians don't.
The anime phase is over for a lot of us.

Just one last night,
It feels so right...

[[Queen of Spades]]

My anime phase is over.
I just read some manga.
It's not really a big deal anymore.  

[kt_jingle]

um.
WTH?
asian =/= anime.
anime =/= asian.
and what more,
anime=/= human.

[Chococat_0623]

i like anime a lot but i would never say that all asians like it. I mean, everybody's different right? heart  

[BlueGam]

That's a new one. If you're Asian, you have to like anime... Now who came up with that? I know some Asians who can care less about anime.  

[Valentina Ambrosia Dizon]

Yeah, it's pretty annoying.
I do like anime, but I'm not that obsessed anymore....>.>
I think people who label others are really those that are weak-willed and they're just showing their stupidity. >.>

I've actually recently had a incident like this where a classmate of mine asked, "Do you listen to EMO music?" just because of my dressing style...=.="
And I was like, "Way to judge a book by it's cover, you dumbass."

Basically, just ignore them, one day they'll realize how stupid they were being.  

[blueeskies]

Mine is ironic.

When my family and I used to be stationed on U.S. military bases in Japan, the Asians there were barely into anime. Only of a few of them were. Most of the Asians I knew where all into that gangstaaah hip hop crap (especially Filipinos! AUUUGGH with all that "~*~hawtie azn Pinayz 637~*~", AARRGGH it was so annoying!)

I feel that most of them were the same.

As for the Japanese...most of the Japanese at my school were barely into anime either. They were more of the California-Pacsun-Asian type girl. Like they're into bands such as Yellowcard, Spitalfield, Hawthorne Heights, etc. very much Warp Tour stuff, dressed in Pacun, Oneil, Anchorblue, Dickies, etc. and were into skater boys.


Talk about Americanization.


While when I moved here to the U.S., I find it so ironic that the anime and Japan freaks here expect me to like anime a lot and dress all Harajuku-y.

I can't even believe that most of my Asian friends who have been stationed in Japan as long as I have knew nothing about Harajuku or Japanese pop culture. I think some Japanese didn't know about it either, and especially the half-Japanese people.


Now I can't believe that I like anime and have become so interested in Japanese pop culture.

But anyway.
I'm about close to coming off-topic; I used to like anime then I got tired of it, now I like anime again. xD;; But I'm only a casual anime fan since I've only watched a few anime. I don't have all the time in the world to watch +100 anime series and countless number of episodes.

And I'd also like to cosplay, but I'm too cheap for that.
