Do you think I'm trying too hard to look/appear white?

Everytime I go over to my parents house that's my dad's favorite thing to attack me on. He says I pretty much erased all that made me asian just about. Heaven forbid if I wear circle lenses in his presence.

Man....what the hell is wrong with you?! You should be PROUD to be Asian!! Not trying to be white b/c some bullshit standards!! My father is half Russian/half Chinese born in the USSR and raised in Mainland China after his parents divorce. Despite looking very white appearance and being a Russian citizen proudly speaks Chinese as his first and preferred language! He won't leave Asia and his Asian family even for the chance to live in the United States with his American wife. Why? Because he values his culture, his rich cultural heritage, and wants to keep his culture instead of accepting strange white culture. When he was doing the paperwork to come to the USA legally he asked what he should call himself in terms of race and was told to ALWAYS call himself white due to appearance BUT that didn't suit him at all b/c he knew he wasn't white and his entire life is due to Asian family. Till this day I can still call him "white boy" and nearly get myself strangled to death b/c he is so proud to be Asian raised and cultured and ABSOLUTELY HATES being called white boy although he's half white and looks that way naturally. Asian cultures are so rich , successful, and ancient. Why would anyone in their right mind want to deviate!?

@markansas that's a different conversation! Not skin colour.

@Gangstress her was my thought on that. and a quote from above.[image deleted]is that when you start making small changes like contacts that make your eyes look different . it could become a slippery slope . it might be slow and gradual. that he should be comfortable with the way he is . not meaning to be crude or rude. beauty is on the inside . myself i think the mind is sexy . after all i am not the most handsome person and i learned to be comfortable with the way i am. it took a long time to get that mind set. and yes i read he had a skin disorder. i remember the jackson 5 on tv. loved the group even as a child. peace be with ya

@PepsiColaP It is funny because in the east everyone wants to be western and then in the west everyone wants to be tan and have a big everything

@FutureIdol I think is just a case of standing out ,wanting to be seen , and different features being more attractive to each because of how rare they are

FutureIdol · 31-35, M

@PepsiColaP Personally I want to look exotic and kind of like an anime character.

Is that what you are intentionally doing or are you just expressing your individuality? If it's the latter just do what you want .
