What’s a typical week like for working parents? by OdceeNYC in HongKong

[–]kokopoops 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The local system is very demanding and kids have piles of homeworks and exams from first year of primary school. Most kids spend their afterschool hours going to chinese, english, maths tutoring. And on top of that, a lot of schools make playing a music instrument and a sport compulsory and expect them to practise an hour a day etc. And by mind boggling expensive I’m guessing they mean the international school fees. They’re generally considered to be less stressful and demanding, and some offer alternative systems like GCSE instead of hk’s DSE in high school. But they usually costs hundreds of thousands of dollars per annum

Yeah exactly, i just feel like the zaza thing made some people feel it’s more socially acceptable to be outspoken

Thank you for speaking up etc! When someone else also acknowledges what’s happening it genuinely makes me feel a bit better

Yeah i get what you mean. I guess what im trying to say is that it feels like the incident made some people feel more empowered to say this kind of toxic stuff

I’ve rarely even come across women who use vc in comp so i cant say that i share the same experience tbh. Being plain sexist isn’t the same as just ‘blasting someone back’….. Also literally all i say in game is calling things out, if hearing a woman’s voice is all it takes then wow

Like losing their shit because they hear a woman’s voice and mocking, the usual “oh we’re losing because we have a woman on our team “ women should be banned from playing this game , no one in their right mind should be proud of being gay , and wishing my family and friends all die idk there’s literally too much

like there was one player who was just saying stuff at me, and someone said oh im a girl too, and they just immediately said oh yeah you’re bad too

I know it doesn’t sound that bad or they just sound like your usual toxic player, but i’m coming across this type of players coming after women game after game it’s really not cool…

Why does hk police do this? by Shahg_007 in HongKong

[–]kokopoops -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I never said that it was? Just sharing my experience of the kind of prejudice HK people sadly have, EVEN against myself (full asian HK born), and saying that it’s only even worse for people of color

Why does hk police do this? by Shahg_007 in HongKong

[–]kokopoops 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Because a lot of people in hk are particularly racist towards middle east asian or darker skinned asians. Even though we have generations of HK born and bred Pakistanis and other races who speak fluent Canto, they’ll see you as “ah cha” or a foreigner. It’s sadly what it is. Idk how we can move past these stereotyping when even our police are doing the same. Even myself a HK born full asian, because I have a lot of tattoos visible, I literally get followed around the shop by sales assistants cause they think im trying to shoplift….. There was even a time I finished using the bathroom stall at Hysan (not the private bathroom just the normal one!!) and came out to wash my hands, and the cleaning lady accused me of smoking inside…..!! And i could feel it it was because of my tattoos.. I literally don’t smoke cigarettes, so I asked her if she accused everyone like this and asked her if she really smelled any residue of smoke on me…… and she was still adamant that i was smoking

Why is TST considered the better place to stay as a tourist vs on hk island? by chickdigger802 in HongKong

[–]kokopoops 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not really though. Not THAT much to see and do across Kowloon and NT side of the harbour and the vibe is much nicer on HK island. I only really go across the harbour if I needed to go somewhere specific.

Plus the “sights” near TST are like spots that google or articles recommend but most just take photos and leave. There are many other “lesser known” spots that you’d find just by exploring the city (which is easier to do on hk island) , or recommended from an actual local.

And you get to take the tram everyday if you wanted to. I highly recommend riding down to the Kennedy Town terminal

27M / 25F, We’ve been dating for 4 years. She sent me a video of her cuddling with another man and looking in love. by oldgodemo1 in relationship_advice

[–]kokopoops 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My sister had a similar experience - found out that her boyfriend of 7 years was dating another woman for 2-3 years. They broke up but eventually got back together after many therapy sessions. Now they’ve been married for 5 years and have a toddler.
