Re: Confessions
(Anonymous) 2015-01-28 01:52 am (UTC)(link)You want to bitch about erasing people's identities? That is exactly what you're doing by calling people here and people with my kind of background East Asian, because we're not. I get why you're doing that or why you might have thought that, but please don't, it's just wrong on a level that would make me legit cringe.
Also, uh, you realize the three women that you're showing a picture of are from completely different ethnic groups, right? the one on the right is Chinese, the middle one is Malay, the left is tribal and probably from Borneo or something. The right one is definitely not brown, if anything Chinese people are yellow. Also South Asians - Indians / Pakistanis - are NOWHERE NEAR the Middle East, what even. Your classification systems are seriously borked and trample over people's identities to a point where it's sort of awkward to read about.
Seriously though, classifying Malaysia or Indonesia as 'East Asia' is like me saying Missouri is part of the East Coast of the US, simply because it's east of Kansas (the geographical center of the US). Then going on to insist the only two valid parts of the US are East Coast and West Coast and no other categories exist because I wasn't taught about them in school.
