He also looks Asian, he could pass in a lot of areas of South or Southeast Asia.

@listentologic Yes but not exactly like that. Native Americans are descendants of Ancient North Eurasians and a Basal East Asian lineage that is related to North Asians (Siberians) as well as to East Asians and Southeast Asians and more broadly to other East Eurasian lineages of Oceania and Asia. That's why he can pass as Asian. He's not biologically "Asian" though. He's biologically mostly of East Eurasian descent hence his appearance.

@ni3070 To answer your question, nobody in Asia uses terms like "brown" or "yellow". In fact, the usage of "brown" is an American colloquialism. It's not a very common term used outside of the US. Concepts like "brown" mean nothing in an Asian context because it only describes skin tone and not genetics or culture. For example, there are many light skinned Newar people in Nepal and there are also many dark skinned Newar people in Nepal. Nobody in Asia would ever consider dark skinned Newar people as "brown" and light skinned Newar people as "yellow" - they're just Newar people. Labels like "brown" were created by White people to describe non-White people.

@UniversalMokenTroll TikTok has also became a major tool in bringing awareness to issues occurring around the world, many of which will not end up on mainstream media.

@Bunnyhop21 Imagine not being able to respect other people and who they are. Imagine thinking your beliefs should dictate how the rest of the world should live. What a miserable world it would be if those people were in charge.

East Asian Americans are notorious for peddling this trope. Not all but it's always them that claim East Asians are only Asians. It's such an American issue.

@ni3070 Nepal is culturally closer to India but genetically speaking Nepalis are genetically closer to both South Asians and East Asians (Tibetans to be specific). Some groups are closer to South Asians, some closer to East Asians and some are related to both South Asians and East Asians like the Newar people.

@kaneidareyue7715 Asian is a term to describe people from Asia, it's nothing more. Indians are not Arabic/Middle Eastern or Torres Strait Islanders. What? Indians are culturally Indic and related to other South and Southeast Asians. Genetically, Indians are a mix of West Eurasian (Euro/Mid-East-related) ancestry and East Eurasian (AASI) ancestry which is genetically closer to Basal East Asians and Australasians.

@listentologic No he's not biologically Asian. Asian means somebody from Asia. There is no "biological Asian" race.

@don't ping I rarely check Caucasian is an outdated racial term from the 19th century. Nepalis/South Asians aren't Caucasian. Caucasian described skull shape, nobody in the scientific community uses that term. You can't determine ethnicity by skull shape, only a genetic test can reveal that. South Asians are mostly a mix of Ancestral North Indian (ANI) and Ancestral South Indian (ASI) components. That's why even in the 19th century, Indians/South Asians were sometimes classified as "mixed" or "unclassified" by anthropologists like Carleton S. Coon because South Asians are so diverse and modern science has shown us why South Asians were so hard to classify back in the 19th century. Nepalis/South Asians are basically mixed. Some groups are closer to other South Asians and some are closer to East Asians and some are close to both.

@Jambudvipa-ug6yg They're Asians, burstchaos

@ni3070 It's only used racially outside of Asia. In Asia "Asian" isn't considered race. For example, in Singapore, all Singaporeans of Indian, Chinese and Malay descent are considered "Asian". There are different terms used to denote race within Asia. It's used as a demonym/geographicaly/cultural term in Asia. However, outside of Asia it's also used racially as you said. In the US and some other Western countries it means "East Asian" and in the UK and some East African countries like Kenya it means "South Asian".
14
@listentologic Oh my gosh, you really need to do some research on population genomics. Did you seriously just say that West Eurasians and East Eurasians are a mixture of "white, asian and black"?
13
@listentologic Stop being racist to Native Americans and undermining their indigenous heritage by calling them "Asian".
13
@listentologic Wrong. There is East Eurasian, West Eurasian and West/East African and Khoisan. He is biologically a mix of East Eurasian with some West Eurasian.
12
@listentologic No Native Americans are Native Americans. Asian means somebody from Asia. Don't they teach anything in American schools?

@don't ping I rarely check No, the scientific term is not "Caucasoid". The terms now used today are "West Eurasian", "East Eurasian", "South Eurasian" etc. You also need to do more research into the genetic make-up of South Asians. They were formed by West Eurasian-related populations from Central Asia who intermixed with the South Asian hunter-gatherers who were of East Eurasian origin. Also, you clearly haven't seen enough South Asians if you think they all look the same because they don't. They're phenotypically very diverse and it's due to their "mixed" origins.

@creampuffisme Actually it depends on context. In the US, the first wave of Asian immigrants were from East Asia and in the UK, the first wave of Asian immigrants were from South Asia. In the Netherlands, the first wave of Asian immigrants were Indonesians. So in US English, "Asian" refers to East Asian and in British English, "Asian" refers to South Asians. In the Netherlands, "Asian" conjures up images of Indonesian people and culture. Officially on government documents, East Asians, South Asians and Southeast Asians are classified as "Asians" regardless of how the term is used in colloquial language in these countries.

@bubba94290 They identify as Central Asians, not South Asians. Afghanistan is culturally more similar to Central Asia anyway.

She fits the American beauty standards, that is the truth.

@Ambra Bianca He didn't say Caucasian women. I'm pretty sure he meant light skinned African American women. The light skin issue, from my understanding, is about light skinned and dark skinned African American women and how lighter skinned African American women are put on a pedestal. Also, how most of the African American actresses and models in American pop culture are light skinned which is something Percy spoke about in the video.
6
@iimmortalldreams They're not really Asians. Asian Americans love to identify as "Asian" but know nothing about Asia. Their idea of being "Asian" is based around Kpop, bubble tea, proximity to mainstream Han Chinese culture or for non-East Asians just what they know about their own culture from their parents as well as "Asian representation in Hollywood" but that's it. Real Asians are those in Asia and I'll keep saying that.

I think your comment brings up an interesting point. You gave a description of your experiences with all of the men you have dated and the one thing that stood out to me was culture. Now culture can mean a lot of things but there is a difference between culture of your own ethnic group to culture of your nation. I'm assuming you're a born and raised American and and I would say that you're going to fit in better within an American context rather than a non-American context. Why? It's because you're from the US. While there will always be nuances as you described with the White guy, Chinese guy and Black guy, the one thing you have in common is that you're culturally American despite coming from different ethnic and ancestral cultural backgrounds. As soon as you said you said that the Indian guy was an international student, it was clear. The cultural similarities Indians and Southeast Asians share is one thing that you said you both connected to but you also said your cultures were very different and I think it's safe to say that he would have come from a more traditional Indian background (as represented in India) and that your cultural background of being an American of Southeast Asian heritage was what made it also feel so different. "Race", ethnicity, genetics is one thing but I believe culture is what is going to play the biggest role. There are cases of cross cultural mixing in multiracial nations like Singapore and Malaysia where people of ethnic Indian descent have been raised in Chinese culture and thus are culturally Chinese and vice versa Chinese people raised in Indian culture who are culturally Indian. If we take it a step further there are cases of Indians from India in Singapore who are seen as so culturally different to the local Singaporean Indians despite both groups being ethnically Indian. So I think culture plays a big role, aka the environment you grew up in.

In what universe are Indians more Middle Eastern??? India culturally influenced other parts of South and Southeast Asia. Try learning about Asia. Also, most of the Middle East is in Asia.
5
@RextheRebel The term "subcontinent" was coined by the British to describe the the ethnic diversity of British India after they united the area. Americans try learning about Asia challenge impossible. Persistent lie???? Lol learn to read a map.
5
@Jambudvipa-ug6yg Some West Eurasian-derived Indian is not going to be telling REAL native South Asians (who carry East Eurasian ancestry) whether they're Asians or not lmao
5
@propogandalf In what universe are Native Americans "biologically Asian"?
5
@daltonhauersperger3379 Yes it is "West Eurasian". Those are the terms used in the scientific community. If you understand human genetics then you'll know why geneticists use "West Eurasian" and "East Eurasian" when they refer to the basal genetic make-up of the native populations of Europe and Asia (Eurasia).

@Dand40 No South Asians don't. India had a big impact on the rest of Asia. Indian influence permeates South and Southeast Asia and also had an impact on East Asia via the spread of Buddhism. Most of South and Southeast Asia fall within the Indian cultural sphere with Indic culture being the root of Thai, Nepali, Sri Lankan, Cambodian, Burmese, Indonesian and Lao culture among others. Certain Japanese and Chinese dieties are of Hindu origin. For example, Chinese diety Wei Tuo and Japanese diety Benzaiten are of Hindu origin. Wei Tuo is known as Murugan by Tamils in India, Sri Lanka, Singapore and Malaysia. Benzaiten is known as Saraswati in India and Nepal. There are multiple other elements of Indian influence in other South, Southeast and East Asian cultures but there is too much to list. Thing is people think that just because most South Asians look different from East Asians or Southeast Asians it means they are culturally very different, they're not.
5
@ni3070 No Sri Lankan likes to be called "Indian". Sri Lankan culture and Indian culture are very different. Ethnically speaking, the dominant ethnic groups in both countries are completely different. Most Sri Lankans are also Buddhists and most Indians are Hindus.

@AdanSolas Nobody is missing your point. You literally said that Cambodia and Thailand are more similar to South Korea than to India. How about stop inserting yourself into Asian's peoples business and leave us alone. Haven't you people done enough damage to our part of the world? This behaviour, this constant attempt at saying Asia is different and needs to be divided up is why China continues to speak up and launch pan-Asian security dialogues and repeat words like "Asia for Asians". Just a few months ago another Chinese politician encouraged Asian nations against non-Asian hegemony. Keep doing what you're doing, there are already reports out of pan-Asian Singapore (where people are Chinese, Malay and Indian) that there are people who have been radicalised by China's pro-Asian and anti-Western rhetoric.

@AdanSolas Cambodia and Thailand were culturally influenced by India. They are NOT similar to South Korea. The customs, the beliefs, the religion, the etiquette, the architecture, music, literature, mythology and so on are all similar to India, not East Asia. There are native people in Thailand and Cambodia that look more like Indians too like Miss Universe Thailand contestant Alisa Arunahiran. You're talking so much about Asia and yet you literally said Cambodia, Thailand are more similar to South Korea. I'm going to call it racism atp because only a racist will group East and Southeast Asians together and say they're all the same.

@StrawberryMilkkTeaa It's always Americans saying these sorts of things. How silly, lol. South Asians call themselves Asians because they are in Asia and it also so happens to be that South Asia is culturally very closely related to Southeast Asia, which is also located in Asia. Do you think when the Japanese invaded India to make it part of their Greater East Asia empire, they were thinking of some future thing called "Kpop"? Don't be asinine. East Asiaboos and East Asian Americans need to be educated ASAP.
4
@StrawberryMilkkTeaa Thinking South Asians calling themselves "Asians" means they want to be associated with East Asians is crazy. This just proves you associate "Asian" with "East Asian" and lack the ability to understand the term in different contexts.

@sageo7618 India is in Asia so they're Asian. Forced? Lol what?
4
Yes they are
4
@Jambudvipa-ug6yg Yes they are

@Beintentionallyweird Not easy??? So it's not easy for you because you don't get to discriminate and judge people? I can't believe this comment section.
4
@ni3070 Yeah Asian is a geographical term, not racial.

@don't ping I rarely check Yes that's right most of the time but in regards to South Asians it's more complex due to the "mixed" origins of South Asian people. Elaborating on what I said before, the West Eurasian component in South Asia is highest in the western part of the region and the East Eurasian component is highest in the east. What you said about the Indo-European language is true, they shared a common ancestor before they split. This is actually what I inferred when I mentioned the West Eurasian-related migrants from Central Asia. However, due to South Asia's complexity, there are groups that speak a language from a certain language group but are genetically closer to another group. For example, the Brahui of Pakistan speak a Dravidian language but they are genetically related to the Balochi and other Western Pakistani groups who are Iranic in origin. The Chakma of Bangladesh speak an Indo-European language but are genetically related to both Southeast Asians and to mainland Indians.

@williamecrowe Asian doesn't just mean Chinese, Japanese and Korean! If you're Chinese, Japanese or Korean say "East Asian", if you're Indian, Nepalese, Bangladeshi say "South Asian". Americans stop using "Asian" to refer to one part of the continent only. Indians are Asians!
4
@AdanSolas Racist people always say India and the Middle East are not Asians but never ask why East Asians are considered Asians? Aren't they the odd ones out?
3
@AdanSolas Japan invaded all of East, Southeast and South Asia (India) in WW2 because it believed all of these areas are culturally similar as they all are rooted in Indic, Sinic and Dharmic cultures. It's time non-Asians stop dividing and conquering Asians.

@AdanSolas Cambodia and Thailand were culturally influenced by India. They are NOT similar to South Korea. There are native people in Thailand and Cambodia that look more like Indians too like Miss Universe Thailand contestant Alisa Arunahiran.

@leocorn5559 The hatred for South Asians is insane and it's always the SEA who want to be associated with East Asians that peddle this narrative. South Asia isn't all the same and Bollywood isn't the only thing popular in South Asia ffs. Korean pop culture has long been popular in the region. There are other countries in South Asia like Sri Lanka where people watch Chinese dramas and Thai dramas. Earlier this year, an Indian girl competed on Chuang Asia Thailand, a India-Indonesia_South Korea Kpop project idol group was formed this year and we all know Squid Game featured an Indian actor.

@natashka1982 You look at multiple news sources. You don't limit yourself to three sources which is what you do. You want to inform yourself then look at multiple different sources stop limitimng yourself to right wing ultra conservative news sources and think you're informed about what's happening, you're not.

Indians are Asians because India is in Asia. India was NEVER it own continent, it was part of Gondwanaland. Humans did not exist back then either. Americans try staying in school challenge impossible.
3
@SM-qn7sr Yeah some Southeast Asians can pass as East Asian. Also, many Southeast Asians in the US are actually of Chinese origin. For example, most Burmese Americans are of Chinese origin. The thing is Southeast Asians, like South Asians, are diverse in phenotypes and culture. For example the experience of an East Asian looking Southeast Asian is going to be different to a darker skinned Southeast Asian. For example, an East Asian looking Filipino woman was racially abused in the UK due to the coronavirus and in Australia, a darker skinned Filipino woman was racially abused and called a "currymuncher" because the racist people that attacked her thought she was Indian. Just goes to show how different people's experiences are. It's best if they did separate videos on this topic, one for East Asians, one for Southeast Asians and one for South Asians. Then in each of these videos they could have included three people from three different ethnic groups within each of these categories.
