Kylo’s fighting style is remarkable
What do you think of the stereotype that all asians are smart?
It is very harmful due to the following reasons:
There is a lot of pressure within the Asian community for Asian children to do well academically and this stereotype just intensifies the need to do well outside of the Asian community.
If an Asian child is having difficulty at school then it is assumed they are being lazy. This needs to stop! Some Asian children have learning difficulties and instead of pinpointing the difficulties the Asian children are deemed as lazy because they are not living up to the “smart Asian” stereotype.
If there is a sudden drop in the academic performance/ attendance of an Asian child at school then people say “they don’t care anymore” when in reality it may be due to personal issues/ depression/ anxiety/ anorexia and many other mental issues.
If an Asian person does do well on an Exam, then their achievement is brushed off as “well you’re Asian so it’s normal”. This actually lowers self esteem and self worth, I can tell you this from personal experience.
Ultimately, the “Asian kids are smart” stereotype hinders society from viewing Asian children as capable of having disabilities; as capable of having a mental illnesses: as capable of being an individual person rather than some foolish stereotype.
It has a greater effect than some people think so think twice before you repeat it to another person.
i don’t know about you but i’m kind of seeing a trend here.
Bonus:
Some other things worth noting (not all about high school):
-They go to school around 240 days a year
-High schoolers can get home as late as 11 or 12 every night because of club activities and other like things
-in schools and hospitals, people change into indoor shoes
-THEY DON’T HAVE SCHOOL BUSES
-People commute to school and work by bus, bicycle, train, or foot.
-Around commuting time, the trains are so full you can’t even move around in them (making it easier to be molested)
-The main religion in Japan is Shintoism and Buddism so if you wanna write about religion do your research
-otaku is a degrading term in Japan like weeaboo is a degrading term BEING AN OTAKU IS NOT A GOOD THING, REPEAT, BEING AN OTAKU IS NOT A GOOD THING
I could go on and on but I have other matters to attend to and I can’t.
basic japanese high school schedule for you, fic writers
students attend class from monday thru saturday, with saturday being a half day. sundays are off
the high school day usually runs from 8:30am to 3pm, but many students stay after for after school clubs or attend cram school in the evening
the school year runs from april to march with a summer break come the end of july. first term is from april to july, second term is from september to december, and third term runs from january to march
your favorite high school anime doesn’t have separate classrooms for no reason. japanese students don’t rotate classes like american students do; instead, they have a fixed classroom and class number (i.e., 3-A), and the teachers do the rotating
they also don’t have the same classes every day
they do still have homeroom teachers; however, “homeroom” is more of a class meeting at the end of the day rather than at the beginning
the students are required to help clean the school at the end of the school day before clubs start
school uniforms are a thing for high schoolers. dress code used to be much stricter but recently they’ve allowed more basic alterations to the uniform
please stop writing them like american schools you’re embarrassing yourself
