IgnoRANT

I'm sorry, I know I've already made way too many videos regarding RACE. Originally, this was supposed to be posted as a rant video but I've decided to blog instead, because ..I'm PISSED OFF. "Oh, no surprise there. A pissed off Asian chick with a stupid chipmunk voice. TROLOLOL!" Alright, so this person commented on my video saying how Asians try too hard to be White just because they wear circle lenses to make their eyes bigger, dye their hair blonde and have lighter skin. Now, YOU tell me what's wrong with that sentence. Look yeah, my skin isn't light because I wanna be White. It's 'coz I rarely leave the house. And just because an Asian dyes their hair blonde, doesn't automatically mean that they're a White-wannabe. I mean, I've thought of dying my hair blonde before and never ONCE thought: "When I grow up, I wanna be a White girl!". I just thought having blonde hair would look cool! But sadly, I had second thoughts and decided to dye my hair in a different colour. If I had cornrows, does that make me a Black-wannabe? NO! What's wrong with trying new things? Changing your hair/clothes/etc does NOT change your race. And since when did wearing hoodies and caps mean that you're a Black-wannabe? OMG, that's like the most stupid thing I've ever heard. Because I wear hoodies ..alot! See, this is why alot of stereotypes SUCK! Especially when some of you guys think it applies to the whole friggin' race.

When a white person dye's their hair black or dark brown, you don't see me going around saying: "Oi! You Asian-wannabe! Learn to appreciate your own race! And stop pretending to be mine!" Because honestly, I HATE people like that. I'm sorry. Wait, no I'm not. Don't act like you OWN your race. You're just a part of it. But that doesn't give you the right to tell people what they should and shouldn't do. And stop calling me a Japanese-wannabe just because I listen to J-Pop. I listen to Japanese music. And I can proudly say that I don't understand a single word they're saying. The song could be about ANYTHING. Even sluts. But does that stop me from listening to it? NO! If it's got a good beat, I can dig it. P.S: I'm not trying to say that all Japanese songs are about sluts. Just thought I should let you know.

"On the other hand .." I know there are people who hate their own race so they try to fit in with another race. Eventhough I hang around with Black people, I DO have a few Asian friends. So that doesn't mean I hate my own race. It's just that most of the Asians I come across are such drama queens and gossip as much as my mum does. Not all Asians always group together within their race. I'm like the total opposite. If you're one of those people who hate your own race, I'm sure you must have your reasons. However, PLEASE don't think that ALL of them are bad people. I've actually had that thought before and yeah, that was stupid.

This annoys me the most; "Did you have double eye-lid surgery? Because Asians aren't supposed to have double-eyelids .." Bitch, WTF?! "Asians aren't supposed to have double-eyelids"?? Are you fucking kidding me?! What are you trying to say? All Asians look the same? Just because I have double eyelids, you immediately assume I've had plastic surgery? No eye-lid tape, No glue, No scars above my eyes. Yes, they're natural. Now, Shoo! Go do your research. And SO WHAT if someone DID have plastic surgery. Some of you need to stop putting these people down by calling them "Fake". You think it's funny? Why must you care so much about their appearance? It doesn't matter what they've done to their body. It's their decision. If changing their appearance boosts their confidence, then let them! You don't see them saying "Urgh, you're so NATURAL!" We're all human beings, just because they had plastic surgery, doesn't make them any less human. If one of my friends had something done to their face/body, I wouldn't abandon them. It's what's in the inside that counts.

I feel so much better now. Thanks for reading! ^-^
