Every now and then, I see and hear my parents yelling, screaming, complaining, and being plain obsessive and impulsive about the western culture, our ways of living and our viewpoints in general. They criticize, demoralize and vandalize all our freedom, our thoughts and will to try and do new things so that we can discover what it means to be part of a society like Canada, what it means to live in North America, and the experience and joy of learning and being a part of other cultural and social events and celebrations. " You can't do this, that, this, blah blah blah, nah nah nah. No playing sports- too dangerous. Get 100% on test, or you will be spanked. Study only, as everything else is worthless and bad. " And how can we forget, " No seeing or talking to girls, and marry and date only when 20 or older of age! Oh, only marry girl who is rich, and study well! no cross cultural marriage!" Of all these stupid things, i'd say 99% of them are kind of ridiculous and down right stupid. They are suppressing us of happiness, individualism and pride of being part of a heritage with it's own history and uniqueness. I only concur with the fact that education is important, and the fact that it is important to make friends with people who we can trust, and who won't hurt our own images. The other things, i don't agree with at all. I constantly have to persuade my parents to be a bit more open minded, and to appreciate the pros and not the cons of everything i like to do. What good things can't they see in sports? Weight lifting strengthens you, and i don't do it in an extreme fashion. Exercise and music are 2 things which are of importance in my life, and they see it as beings of a demonic and very harmful nature.
They believe that the things we like are worthless. When we wanna talk with girls or people of another race, they look at us with suspicion. When we wanna go somewhere to try something new, they disallow us to. Take this, as an example. I'm really interested in training, and fighting. I wanna do some boxing, amongst other things and they won't let me. They make me do karate, and they seem to be brainwashed because they believe that I should only focus on it since they're " paying for it" and that " i'm only doing it for fitness. " Alright, here's the deal. Martial arts were created for the purpose of killing those who want to kill you, and to defend yourself effectively. They think that if i were to train in boxing that i'd die or something. If they could just open their damn chinky eyes and see the positives of boxing, and other arts like muay thai or judo or brazillian jiu jitsu/wrestling, they'd realize how deficient a single art can be alone, by itself. Why not play sports and why eat pork all the fuckin time? why not read texts of the 19th and early 20th century and why criticize other cultures for without fully understanding their viewpoints? They treat us literally like fuckin dogs and babies when they should just let us off the leash cause we're older now, and understand things better than em. Maybe it's because of what they experienced back in their homelands, and i fuckin hate the fact that they don't have the will to change or accept things, or at least understand things. We have to practice their positive things, why can't they practice the positive things of a new society, like a true ASIAN-CANADIAN???
When i see em, they're not Asian Canadian. They're more like fuckin asian refugees with too much pride for their homeland of CHINA, Fuck, we're not in china anymore. IF you wanna be like that, go back and stay there for good, otherwise, don't stay here.
