I honestly am quite tired of it. I know not all Eurasians are cocky but I know most are. Examples: a girl who's Chinese/European seems to think she can "switch" from "acting White" to "acting Asian", a hair washer asked an Asian customer what ethnicity her fiance was, and when she said he was French the hair washer said, "Your kids will be so cute. That's what I am." Someone on Answers bragged about how her mixed ethnicity attracted attention from guys. Rob Schneider is part Filipino but plays roles that are offensive to Asians.
I think there's a difference between being proud of your race and being a jerk and making yourself superior to other races. It's a good sign that races are intermixing, but at the same time I think the products of interracial mixing are only concerned with their looks and don't care to actually get to know where they came from.
Why do Eurasians feel the need to put themselves on a pedestal?
Insecurity is my guess. They are doing it out of over-compensation. Just like in other situations, where it's usually the flashiest, loudest, most noticeable, or at least trying to be noticed people are the most insecure ones. Or the ones who you think is most aggressive in front of you, or the ones who makes you question why that person is being so unreasonably hostile towards you, when it's uncalled for, are the most insecure ones, trying to make up for the qualities they lack or think they lack.
Of course not all are like this. Quite often, it's the bad apples that we hear because they are the most noticeable/loudest due to their nature.
Why do Eurasians feel the need to put themselves on a pedestal?
So because the ones in your area are, we all are? Not quite fair, don't you think?
Why do Eurasians feel the need to put themselves on a pedestal?
JenYA,I couldn't agree more
Why do Eurasians feel the need to put themselves on a pedestal?
You're right, some people do act that way and it's really irritating. but you find that type of attitude with any race, regardless if they are half or not.
