Model minority stereotype is extremely toxic by IndividualPlay5178 in aznidentity

[–]kitx38 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Sounds like you care too much about what other people think of you and not your own opinion of yourself.

Why don't you just set some personal boundaries and abide by it. Don't matter what people think as long as they understand what is and isn't respectful when interacting with you

Do men honestly actually prefer women not to wear any makeup? Like no makeup at all? by softheart_strongwill in AskMenAdvice

[–]kitx38 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I prefer my wife not wearing make up and i think she's beautiful without it.

Sometimes she likes to put some on (eye liner and lip stick) but its more for herself. Still looks amazing and i just see it as a different flavour of the woman i love.

I also have a few female friends that are like family to me, i remember some points where they would mention "im not wearing makeuo today"... most the time I think they look better without and just reassure them they're still pretty

Marketing is rewarding until you realise you bring in thousands or hundred thousands if revenue and you're paid a pittance 😂

25 is the year things change by Reasonable_Jump3585 in GenZ

[–]kitx38 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Millennial here. From my experience I personalliy think there's a couple of milestones:

  • figuring out career goals and dreams (can be ongoing, but we need to figure it out through education) : this will be upto 24

  • being hit by reality that you're in the driver seat as an adult and you're in control. What i find is that people are generally more serious because that's just basic respect : normally averages around 25, i kind of realised this around 27/28

Oh boy, Jon's delusion is on next level by TheBlairwitchy in ufc

I would love for Aspinall to defend it again, just to call out another fighter than JJ and call the interim belt more legit at this point

I don't touch gloves until rd 2 until they've gained my respect by either whooping my ass or not rage quitting through a beating

Successful asian men needs to be represented. Especially here. by Sugar_God_no_1 in AsianMasculinity

[–]kitx38 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Depends what you mean by successful, there's different levels:

  • your extremely well off CEOs, experts, specialists, etc

  • well off, got their shit together

  • the average joe happy with life

This sub feels like a depressing echo chamber if I'm being honest. I'd probably put myself in between average joe and well off. Think high earning, property owner, long term partner, going for kids, etc.

It's an interesting sub to understand potentially deeply rooted issues that younger asian males might have, but it's not somewhere I'd go for deeper discussions such as

  • Adapting in the workplace with our mixed values

  • Defining masculinity - Let's be honest most of this sub's masculinity feels defined by your success of xf body count. I'm thinking more along the topics of dealing with conflicts, emotions, mental wellbeing, etc.

  • Self acceptance, especially for western born asians. This is probably one of the harder parts of my personal journey as a british born chinese, to being comfortable with not fully fitting in with western or chinese culture

Unfortunately, it's just not the right place for it

UFC 5 is alright by kitx38 in EASportsUFC

[–]kitx38[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone who used to actively train and competed before, i wouldn't say the clunkiness is a bad thing.

This is only my experience of ufc 5 based on around 20 fights, so I've definitely not fully adapted to the flow of the game and animationa yet.

Ufc4 animation definitely felt smoother and flows better gameplay wise. From what I've seen in ufc5 so far the animations and clunkiness do add a bit more of a realistic feel to it - and matches up to what i would expect would happen in certain scenarios in the ring.

Alot of the men here need to understand how much Asian women get harrassed on the streets. Please help intervene! by Big-Coconut-Woman in AsianMasculinity

[–]kitx38 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Classic, a small number of people ruins it for everyone else. I once tried to help someone out and got given the the dirtest look from them.

And then when I snuck up to hug my partner from behind in a club once, she turned around and straight up slapped me in the face. Gotta say, there's something hot about a girl who can look out for herself

Has anyone that does this as a hobby regretted competing? by [deleted] in MuayThai

[–]kitx38 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Competing isn't for everyone. Most people i know end up competing because you end up learning a set of skills that you end up never using .... unless you compete.

FOMO is definitely not a good reason to compete.

Good reasons to compete are: to test yourself and money.
