Not the anon you replied to, but I'm also of Asian descent, and I think the issue is that while people of (for instance) western European descent may still be very influenced by the culture of where their family came from, it's much rarer for them to get the "but where are you ~really~ from" sort of attitude that is common with people of Asian descent, regardless of how removed they may be from that culture. This doesn't negate the fact that some people are more steeped in their Asian heritage (which some certainly are, though I admittedly am not), but it shouldn't be assumed that everyone is one way or the other.

I don't agree with everything in this satire video, but if you haven't yet seen it, it illustrates the complaint: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PMJI1Dw83Hc ("If Asians Said the Stuff White People Say")

hmm, thanks! I guess the answer is that there is no monolith answer.

Ha, I've seen that vid, and tbh - I live in Korea and 99% of those things have legit been said to me. While I understand that it's done from the perspective of Asians in America, I think they don't realize that most of it is "stuff people say to visible foreign minorities they don't know much about" regardless of race.

"stuff people say to visible foreign minorities they don't know much about"

Yep, I think you hit the nail on the head there! Explains why people are sometimes sensitive about perceived stereotyping...
