wow does she have something against asians or something (even though she is asian). I don't get why she is making such a big deal of it considering there are going to be certain schools that have higher levels of a certain ethnicities than others. It isn't anything new. I'm definetly going to sign the petition, because what she writes about is such lame crap.

QUOTE(uninspiredfae @ May 10 2005, 9:46 PM) How so? If the majority of the school is Asian, wouldn't it make sense that Asians have an easier time winning votes? Lets not delude ourselves into thinking that homecoming queens are voted on true beauty and intelligence instead of popularity. If the school's majority is White, there's a good chance that the homecoming queen be White. Considering American culture, this should be expected. What exactly is the author racist about? She has stats saying that the majority is Asians and they're setting high standards. Is this stereotypical? Maybe, maybe not. I know my parents don't set high standards for me, but I KNOW other Asian parents aren't as generous as mine. I don't think it's stereotyical, I think it's somewhat true. Edit: ya'll are funny.  agree. though it is stereotypical, it isn't really racist. And personally, it is true of a lot of my asian friends. Quite a few of them whose parents push them REALLY hard to excel. But not all, which is why it's stereotypical to me. But I don't think she was trying to be racist. |

Hehehe, my city is near San Mario.
Yesh, its very stupid because she is stupid. I think she wrote it because she think asian has more quality than white people. that isnt true. Maybe its because she doesnt have very strong education, not becuase of the culture. signed. Hey, send this link to that girl in your school =]. She deserve something rude. |

 What a hypocrite. Group: Member Posts: 2,754 Joined: Apr 2005 Member No: 128,150 |
wtf? That article makes me really .. mad. And angry at her, too. So what if the two "full Asian" candidates are Asian? Nationality doesn't make a difference - what makes a candidate eligible to win are their talents and abilities, and their personality, too.
 Yay, signed the petition. That girl is so -growls-. |

^Hello?? Do you people not know how to read? THIS IS NOT RACISM.
She's just stereotyping since most Asians are like that. :x You should be proud of what she's saying although it is a little stretched. She used statistics to show her point and well, I don't understand what the big deal is. |

well that's pretty stupid, but here we don't have many asian people and all the preppy white people get the jobs even though some are really unfit to be leaders.

That's not even remotely racist. Hell, it's almost like a compliment...
'Asians do better than whites on standardized tests.' That doesn't make you proud of your race? The author also talked about how well the tennis team at San Marino does, and how it is almost 100% Asian. Something tells me you're just making a fuss to make a fuss. Not signing. |

^ Same.
I'm sorry, but I just don't see the big deal. There is some stereotyping, but guess what- everybody stereotypes. Everybody. Different degrees of it, but it isn't exactly something against human nature. Though I do agree that if she is going to try to write an article she should not include silly stereotypes. |
