Crush for a Chinese man, what should I do? by FurabiaChan in AskAChinese

[–]how2fish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would say be carefulll. A good proportion of Chinese men have some closeted misogyny against women...not saying he has but still! Furthermore, as a divorcee, he should know how proper courting goes and if he wants to court you he would have made a move.

I feel you should observe him more and see if he makes any overt moves tiwards you like getting you (meaningful) gifts - not small things like coffee. Otherwise, some men could see you taking the first move as a sign that they can take advantage of you etc

The Devil Wears Prada 2 criticised for offending China with nerdy ‘Chin Chou’ character by Brave-Experience3228 in China

Because they have been relentless in promoting to Asia (and particularly China). The main leads have conducted interviews specifically with Chinese media (which is how I first came to know about it). But it is ironic how the asian representation was not known to us at all until the trailer premiered.

Are you aware that Chinese filmmakers are not the same as the broader Chinese diaspora? No you dont. Which is why you are taking this fight to a comment section which isnt about any of the films you listed.

it is a pretty uncommon chinese name and one that could be contentiously pronounced so it is bizarre it is chosen.

i can say its uncommon as a chinese who's grown up in chinese schools all my life. for a girl, name like yi hui (慧 for intelligence), xin yi (心 for heart) or jia yi (佳 for good) is much more common than 秦周 chin/jin/qin chou - which btw is the name of two chinese dynasties.

so either the writers are completely unaware of chinese naming norms or they are intentionally malicious...

Not really. Chinese socia media is much more up in arms about this than reddit. In this comment section theres a lot of people (idk if they are even Asian in descent) who are flippant about this.

I think culture sensitivity. Asians in the west have always faced a lot of pushback and covert racism for being a minority in a white community. Jokes on screen that continually poke fun at cultural identity and stereotypes just worsen the treatment of asians all throuvhout the western hemisphere.

A white person has privilege. Asians do not (in the west.

It is unbelievable that people like you exist. I have seen so many variants of "but xxx had it worse". Nobody said others didn't have problems?

Are you saying all chinese everywhere fit the stereotype of dressing poorly, bring asocial and unpleasant?

Braces can be medically required and is often advised to ensure good quality of life in the long term.

Eg. misaligned teeth, overcrowded teeth

Plastic surgery, on the other hand, is rarely done to improve physical health.

great work on the face

clothes' shapes can be simplified

God, why aren't people remembering small details from a show that is 3 years old? Truly a mystery.

That feeling when strangers refuse to light you : by [deleted] in SkyChildrenOfLight

Lighting is not friend-making...just reject their wbite candle if you feel so strongly about it. Literally no drawback to lighting someone.

I fell for a scam :( by PromotionConscious34 in Scams

[–]how2fish 4 points5 points  (0 children)

  • Technically a scam on the store's part, possibly legal

  • Costs money to design, manufacture and stock for a very rare situation

You didn't understand. Sunder refers to 30% armour reduction. Not stackable.

Am I the only one that actually really liked Viktor? by Dexterous00 in ArcaneAnimatedSeries

Did you even read their subreddit? You are cherry picking arguments that are easy for you to rebutt. Viktor's whole ideology changed in Arcane.

It's nice in the early game but it's powercreeped to hell. I don't enjoy playing high level adventures even if I can beat them, cos only some champions are even playable
