having mochi or anything asian related as an aesthetic...
makes you fucking weird. ive seen people just have random kanji/japanese words in their usernames when they arent even japanese/speak it. people also really love to make it seem to like making asian food apart of their aesthetic. like i get it pink drinks are cute and all but its kinda weird making your whole life out of the idea of japan and their culture??? also i know/seen people who just have a thing for asian women. i know a 40 smthing yr old irl who hits on my aunt and mother who are MARRIED because theyre chinese. art of asian character can also enforce stereotypes like any good performative representation but we arent gonna talk abt that.

I just love the word and the meaning of the words. Is it wrong to like word.atm I feel cool.I mean i can use any language I want but I'm here in a site where I'm pretty sure everyone knows the meaning in that language. I don't exactly want to use Dutch, Arabic or any language here. Culturally here it is mostly with Asian thingy. So.... reply
agree and if you're asian and contribute to this you're also part of the problem lmao (im asian btw) people love to hype up pocky and hello panda n shit but then get disgusted over bone broth, balut, and anti-chinese dog festival ads. There's also lots of asian erasure lately for no reason. *You guys realize there are pink american foods too- dont ...... 1 reply
I agree with calling a piece of culture like a food or the culture itself an aesthetic is really cringe and wrong to do. definitely making your whole life out of it is concerning and very not appreciated. liking cutely made sweets or bentos that happen to be mostly created by japanese people is totally ok, but there's a difference between saying "i...... reply
