eh,
over here.. it's like, everyone's racist. Especially against asian people... It's all " asians can't drive. " " asians are good at math " " asians have sars " " asians are short " And it annoys me so much. Cause they say this in front of my face. And other racist crap that I won't get in to. |

well, it's hard cuz i am asian, i am good at math and a lot of subject... the thing that sucks is everyone EXPECT you to do good, when you do bad in ONE test, they are like, man, anissa didn't do well, blah blah blah, so it gets annoying sometimes. So you have a lot of pressure to do good everytime... yeah, it seems easy and great if you look from the outside, but if you are one of those geniuses, it's hard.

Yeah i agree. I for once do not think asians are the smartest race around. Everyone is equally smart. I know because i have alot of asian friends as well as black,hispanic and so on. If any kind was that smart then why bother going to high school? Why not skip to college? Hm? i have asians in my family and they ain't that smart;-P lol,p3ce

Actually, now that I think about it, IMO, this is from person to person. If you build a rep that you're smart at the beginning of the year, people will t hink you are smart, regardless of your race. (at least, at my school it's like this) So people just, automatically ASSUME you are smart. I hate it that people EXPECT me to be smart, and when I do something wrong they almost get PISSED at me. It's really hard to have all this pressure on you, especially from your own friends. |

It's sometimes irritating as they think you'll do really well in a test,but then, you've flunk it. And they'll be like, ' i thought you're smart?' I'm really horrible in Math though but i'm still asian.

I get so pissed with that stereotype. I'm the only person in my geometry class with an A. Everyone says I get good grades because I'm Asian. I get so frustrated. I get my grades because I work hard not because I'm Asian.

QUOTE(barelyy_coherent @ Dec 9 2004, 6:36 PM) It doesn't piss me off...why would I be pissed off at a stereotype that makes me look smart?  Exactly. It's not like it's a bad thing to be smart. To iiiiiiiYON, what.. the.. heck..  What's up with the macho speech on stereotypes and then "Keep it real with God and get down for him" ? Just a little.. random..In my community, it's been proven that the majority of the people with high scores in academics are Asian. So it's not exactly a sterotype.. I think.. |

well, our school fits perfectly into that stereotype. being in an international school that is over 90% asian and with many people who are uber-smart in math and science although i'm not...and a lot of other subjects, along with pushover parents, our school is an epitome of this generalization. h'okay.

I`m asian, my friends are known for having good marks lol I used to be but I got lazy to study and pay attention in class so I get B now lol. Yes, sometimes it is annoying! When my friends gets bad mark people would go omg.. how come did you get a bad mark? you're asian... you're suppose to be smart. Pretty annoying, doesn't mean that we, asian are suppose to have good marks everytime. My school is known for being one of the best school, so yeah lots of pressure, comp for having great marks it's just so urgh.. There's a lot of stereotypes haizz can't help it.. LOL same for the hwk thing, oh you're asian let me copy your hwk. I somehow feel bad when the person didn't have time to do it and copy on me and get a bad mark when i did my hwk super quickly.. but as for the one who didn't WANT to and get a bad mark i laugh at them, that's what they get for.. even i also get the same mark -___-"

QUOTE(lilangelgurlpnai @ Dec 10 2004, 6:24 PM) My school doesn't strerotype by ethenticity.. or race. It's usually either how rich you are.. Finally, someone who's school is similar to mine. My town used to have cheap, big rich-looking mansions years ago and now they've gone up a bit so that's why a lot of people in our town are so rich and they sort of don't talk to not-rich people. |
