OK this question has been bugging me all morning so y'all please let me know
bc ours did nd I never thought much of it as a kid but know I'm thinking about it and it feels kinda gross? so pls tell me if this experience was universal or not it will haunt me forever otherwise
what do you MEAN 40% of you fuckers didnt have a vomit bowl did you just obliterate your carpet when your stomach flu having ass woke up suddenly at 3am and needed to hurl IMMEDIATELY? did y'all just never ever get stomach bugs growing up??
Being Asian on the internet is hard bc someone w a name like...IDK Akihiko or Jungkook interacts w my post and I gotta squint like...are you ACTUALLY Asian or are u white and racist and just totally unaware of the meaning and very specific racism Asian ppl receive abt our names.
9/10 times it's the latter or like a kin thing or smth and it's like...please I am begging u my Asian soul gets a bit shaved off every time I see a selfie of some "Ju-won" and they're snow white.
BTW white ppl can and are encouraged to reblog this!
There was a time, before my name was legally changed, when I brought my original Chinese name with me to the States and that was registered at my schools. Nobody could pronounce it or would learn to pronounce it. Nobody even bothered trying to spell it right. It was embarrassing. Dehumanizing, even.
But when white people™️ give themselves made up Asian names for aesthetic purposes, all of a sudden, it's so cool and everyone is so on board.
Every member of my family with a Viet given name had to give themselves a white name. It’s really not hard to learn how to say Phuong. We shouldn’t have to let go of the names our families give us just to please white people and their lazy tongues.
