Are you half/half?, I think the term is 'hapas'?

I read this book called 'Nothing but the truth, and a few white lies' and in the book there's this girl that's part Taiwanese & White because her mom married a white guy. Anyhow, the girl didn't like that she was half n' half cuz she felt that she wasn't fully a part of anything. Her friend in the book said that she was crazy because hapas are very pretty/exotic looking and that she has nothing to worry about.

Are there any 'hapas' here that feel the same way? Or feel that it's better being half n' half? Or get complimented on your looks or whatnot? I'm just asking because I've seen some models that are half n' half and they're really pretty. tongue.gif

Just curious, that's all. happy.gif

i have a bias against their parents. why?

mixed race between whites and asians are (for the VAST majority) asian women who have been fed Western culture and desires that they go to the point of considering many asian men unattractive or repulsive. White men marry asian girls because western culture has given them a fetish towards asian ladies because of the many stereotypes of asian women (obedient, makes a white man look better. i could go on but then id violate the PG13 rule).

basic example. Japanese culture. All japanese women have been fed Western ideas that getting an American boyfriend is the most attractive thing. thats why many perverted white boys travel to Japan to teach english without knowing a single sentence of japanese beyond "konichiwa" and "ching chang chong." These men just go to clubs every night and bang a japanese chick because japanese girls idolize white men and they fill the white guy's fetish for asian girls.

the result is a bastardized relationship. if they could have developed a love for each other from just attraction, i dont resent that. but, again, for the vast majority, these asian women are Western wannabes who destroy their own culture and heritage to marry a white man. These women lose all contact with their culture for the most part. A woman wanted to enroll her child at my local chinese school. she was married to a white man. she left crying because she couldnt understand the chinese the parents were saying even though she was fluent when she was a child. She had lost her cultural identity.

The result of their relationship is a child who belongs to neither race. Asians will not fully accept them because the child does not understand what it means to be asian, has not grown up like other asians and cannot relate. How can a half asian relate to the jokes between asians about how tough their parents are on grades when their father isnt that strict over grades with them? white people will not totally accept them because theyre not totally white. no matter how hard they try, they'll never fit into either group fully. but because they cannot relate to asians, they are pushed even further towards white culture.
