>what it means to be asian

Asian isn't a race, it's a socio-geographic designation.
If you look up the etymology of Asian, it describes the people from Anatolia and Levant

The Philippines is an ex-colony and we get good immigrants from there so they should be included

So, Caucasian race is as wrong as ancient Asian word.
I was taught in school that geographic division of Eurasia goes through Ural mountains on east, Caucasian mountains and Bosporus straight on the South. Like in the picture:

When you name every continent you can make the rules, comprende?

>>221208124
Most Americans will call Mongolians and SEAs Asian if you remind them that the countries exist.

It’s only Indians, Arabs, and Caucasians that they will refuse to call Asian
>>
>>221209065
People who say this are almost always the same that think Asia is too big and should be divided into smaller subcontinents.

"Asian" is a word of Westerners.
People in the Middle East and India are not Mongoloid.
People in other parts of Asia do not consider them to be in the same category.
>>
>>221208124
if you want the real answer, we call ourselves east asian.
>>
>>221211233
That's correct

No, just lop off the middle east and russia
Russians because they are their own cultural autism and the middle east because assigning it to any one continent is retarded when it spans three

Orientals just sounds better and in a better world everyone would use it

>>221215397
>"Oriental" is a term derived from the Latin oriri ("to rise"), historically denoting the East. While once used generally for regions east of Europe (including the Middle East), it shifted to mean East Asia. It is now considered an outdated, offensive racial epithet for people, often reinforcing negative stereotypes, and was legally removed from US federal law in 2016
I AM SO HECKIN OFFENDED DID YOU JUST SAY ORIENTAL?

Look man, this is like Latino, originally it was European latins like italians, french, etc. Now it's just latin-americans, it is what it is, terms evolve, "asian" is basically a racial term now.

Massive case of dunning-kruger from everyone arguing over this already well established fact
Asian = east of sinai, east of bosporus, north of australia, east or ural mountains, west of bering
>Wow this is so fucking difficult im retarded and my entire worldview is based on twitter memes and fake outrage
Ok let's do that
Asian = middle eastern, "near east" exclusively to be precise, turkey + parts of syria + lebanon
And anyone who wants to fit outside of this just has to associate with his own specific region wherever it is in geographical Asia. Easy.

Sir this is a Sharty thread.

>>221211210
>It’s only Indians, Arabs, and Caucasians that they will refuse to call Asian

Jeets and the media have only recently started using the term "South Asian" because they know that "Indian" is pretty much a perjorative now, they are desperate to be included with the good immigrants.

There's no discussion. West asia and south asia are different regions of the world genetically and culturally. I think most americans still consider SEAdogs and north asians to be asians though.

Basically asian = you look chinky. Simple as.

>>221215468
everything mutt touches, it turns into racist
negro becomes negative, oriental becomes negative
>>
>>221208124
We dont consider ourselves asians, here the chinese, mongols, koreans and others are considered asians.
As far as I remember, only russians call us asians.
>>
pajeets, pakijeets and banglajeets are not asians, they must be labeled as jeets
>>
>>221215468
In Asian Oriental means victory.
>>
>>221221762
This term is used because besides indians, there are also pakistanis, bangladeshis, sri lankans, nepalese, bhutanese, etc.

>>221208124
americans are practical people
that's the only asia worth considering
