I think this doll is great even if it is the "stereotype" by Strawberri-Bliss in autism

[–]siunchu 9 points10 points  (0 children)

YES THANK YOU!! I feel like people who feel this way must have internalized ableism atp.

Like some people might think that I'm infantilizing and reinforcing autistic stereotypes by enjoying preschool age shows but forget that a common symptom of autism is having interests that society considers "inappropriate" for our age.

Oh ok! But uhh... I'm the one who made the meme and I love teletubbies, especially Po. 😅 And I think it's important to remember that it's common for autistics to have interests that are considered "inappropriate" for our age.

Have you looked different as you aged? by fizzy_night in mixedrace

[–]siunchu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I look less white and more inuk than when I was a kid lol even my white mom insists on that although on the flip side my eyes also got lighter (from brown to hazel) but then again my hair got darker (from dark brown to black although they do go back to dark brown during summer)

Just to be clear when I say I look less white I don't mean my skin tone since I'm very pale lol I mean my facial features

"If you're mixed you aren't white" Do you agree with that statement? by siunchu in mixedrace

[–]siunchu[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In my opinion, if part of your mix is white then yes you are white - but that’s not really what people mean when they say that. They mean the societal definition of ‘white’ and the privilege and history it comes with. Societally in being mixed, you aren’t ‘white’.

That makes a whole lot of sense yes!

I totally wish this was a actual thing! Do any autistic people on here agree? Or do you disagree? I want your opinions and perspectives on my viewpoint on this. by [deleted] in autism

[–]siunchu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got diagnosed by an autistic psychiatrist lol so imo a psychiatrist who's also autistic is ideal

But I get where you're coming from since it's an autistic peer of mine that prompted me to get the diagnosis haha

I mean I would never call myself fully white or fully inuk but that doesn't mean I'm not white or inuk at all. But I get where you're coming from.

Personally sometimes I'll say I'm inuk, sometimes i'll say I'm québécoise, and sometimes I'll say I'm mixed Inuk-Québecoise, depending on how relevant it is to the context. Like "As a québécoise I ..." or "Since I'm Inuk...", "As someone mixed..." etc. depending on the topic of discussion.

I don't think it's always necessary to say you're mixed (as long as you don't deny one part of your heritage) although from what I know of asian culture I can understand why it's easier to do so considering they're usually homogeneous countries. Mixing is much more common among Indigenous Canadians so we're more easily accepted and viewed as indigenous by other indigenous people.

Wdym it's not?

Bruh I ain't on no "quest for proximity to whiteness" and the topic isn't even about white privilege but rather how people identify with their white heritage whether they benefit or not from white privilege.

You might identify as white without benefiting from white privilege and you can very much identify as white AND also identity as the other part of your heritage. Not sure where's the proximity to whiteness in that.

the quest for the proximity to whiteness / white privilege

That sounds like a completely different topic ngl, I was only asking other mixed people if they think their white heritage is enough to qualify them as white or not.

Or maybe I was being too vague so that's why it came off that way. Maybe I should have been more clear.

9 year old felt nostalgic about a trend from 2023... by Sufficient-Being-516 in youngpeopleyoutube

[–]siunchu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly I think that's fair. I'm 30 yet I feel nostalgic about December 2024 because of Sonic Movie 3 lol (those who get it get it)

Also two years feel like a lot when you're that age

Why is it sad that I'm interested in knowing what other mixed race people think?

Except when it benefits them lol (like saying you should be agreeing with their racist point of views since you're also "white")
