Informal Writing 5

In other peoples eyes, I must not an obese and fat boy as well. I have 5 feet 11 inches tall. So the proportion of my body looks very good. It is boy standard body proportion. If this standard of body proportion in America, American must think too slim for a boy. You can easily to meet someone over weight in America when you are in the street.

To say honestly, I am not a really slim boy. But you must ask why me look very slim and do not have any fat in my body. Very simple. It is very simple to cover my fat because I like to wear black tee-shirt and straight jeans. In fashion world, black can make people looks slimmer than wear others color. In my life when I lived in Macau for nineteen years, I attached importance and carefully to choose my clothing such as tee-shirt and jeans. But in America, no one care what you wear. Even if you dress with the problem or your clothing exposed the shortcomings of your own. there do not have people use discrimination perspective with your clothing.  

In my hometown Macau, obesity is not a crime, but a fat person does not obey that rules and exposed the shortcomings of his/her own, he/she would commit the “crime” against fashion. People very value the clothing problems in Asian. they consider people should wear their right clothing. Such as fat people should be wear their clothing on the black color. If you wear leggings with big hips, I am surely people will stare you with laughing or discrimination perspective with your clothing. It's very normal in my hometown Macau. People do not let their commit the “crime” against fashion. That's why I love to stay in America. There are not people care about what you wear and fit on your body or not. I think America do not have commit the “crime” against fashion issues. Because no one care what you put on your body. How come commit the “crime” against fashion?

Different countries have different culture. I think no one disagree what i am say. Culture is the main point of commit the “crime” against fashion. If your are in America, who care you wear wrong clothing. But in my hometown Macau, you need to value to choose your clothing. For example: obese people should wear black color and do not dress slim jeans. slim people should not wear outfit tee-shirt and jeans. That is the norms of people who live in Macau.

Basically, People are living under the eyes of other people will feel that they commit the “crime” against fashion. In my opinion, people are just choosing their favorite clothing and feel convenient. In Europe, people wear alternative clothing on the street. Like a man wear skirt with leggings. In Asian people's eyes, he must commit the "crime" against fashion. But in Europe, not really. They think it is a kind of fashion style. their a part of culture as like american like to wear casual clothing.

What is normal in fashion? It all depends on the local culture. As long as the culture of compliance, it would not commit the "crime" against fashion.

Angry Asian Man

When I first saw "Angry Asian Man"  from the title, it has attracted my attention. The only reason is I'm an Asian. It awakened my interest. I am very curious, because I want to know what would make Asians angry, including me. I was considering the author just told us his feeling or not. Why Asian get angry?

 

 I click to the "Angry Asian Man" from Create Minds. I know I'm totally wrong. The author was not superficial to express his anger. He used some of trivial things to let people know why Asian get anger in life. I very appreciate this blog. The author was using some of the pictures and videos to more specific express why Asian get angry? If you look closely at each title, you will find and understand Asians are supposed to be angry.

After I read some of my interesting posts, I slightly understand the feelings of the author. He want to express the racism issue in America and Asian's treatment in America. 

 

One of his post "the green horney starring jay chou…or, uh, john cho?". The Green Horney is Hollywood movie which was number one at the box office weekend, taking in $34,000,000 in domestic ticket sales. The Internet Movie Database's entry for The Green Hornet was incorrectly listing John Cho (Star Trek, Harold and Kumar) in the role of Kato. It is not respectful to Jay Chou, he is very popular and famous star in Taiwan and China as well. Why don't The Internet Movie Database seriously and handled carefully? 

 

Another post "Chinese immigrant homework" . According to the picture on the top. this is a homework for Chinese immigrant to describing life experiences in U.S. A Chinese immigrant in 1870 probably isn't writing home in English. Definitely, almost all of Chinese immigrant was not good at speaking and learning English in 1870. How did a Chinese immigrant can be survive in U.S.? Did the community has the opportunity to them to have work? Did they have opportunity to learn English? There are so many questions should the community to face the issue of Chinese immigrant. Of course nowadays have not had that issue in U.S.

Basically, The author did not significantly to write American discrimination against Asians. He cleverly used to express some of the trivial things. If we remembered the last assignment, we have had already seen a statistics of San Jose population. It indicated Chinese is a big group who live in San Jose. However, the fact is racism issue is there. Somehow, Asians are treated unfairly. Asian is work hard and achievements will never be lower than Americans. Easy to adapt to any environment, even thought they could not speak very well in English. In addition to Asians, other race should have the same treatment in U.S.
