Asian American History

>Tao Lin
DIS IS NOT DEH WEY

People severely underestimate the importance that Asian parents place on culture as compared to other types of immigrants. Most Asian parents that I knew were unbelievably strict in regard to controlling the social, academic, and personal life of their child. As an Asian-American there is intense social pressure to act orderly and modest. Our identity is pretty unique in that regard.

Who cares? Really, who gives a shit about your unique identity? How is that relatable to most people? How does any of that produce art? Can YOU make people care? Go to a fucking mental institution if you're so hurt by your parents.

Frankly, I'm with . How many people, outside of the asian-american audience, are going to give a flying fuck about that? Unless studying the relationship as a subject, no one is going to care, and since it is probably personal stories, rather than empirical data, it will only be looked at with half-glances from anyone other than "social scientists". A good book that is meaningful or sells well is one that can be universally applied to the audience, or lets them escape, regardless of being.
