correcting - "all asians know kung fu"
you know how the asian sterotype that goes "all asians know kung fu"? it got a few problems with it:
1. "kung fu" is chinese, "asian" includes others other than chinese, so it would be ridiculous to say all asians know kung fu
2. even in china, not everyone tries out kung fu, just mostly poor kids hoping to make a living
3. it would be difficult to actually survey who actually practice kung fu
so, instead of saying "all asians know kung fu," wouldn't it be more correct to say "all israelis know krav maga"? it is a fact that an israelis citizen is drafted into the military for 2 yrs after reaching 18. and all military personels are taught krava maga.
so cut the asian bs

Bullshit.
Everyone knows all Asians know Kung-Fu, and know how to build microchips.

in modern day slang and stereotypes, asian= chinese/korean/japanese. no such thing as any other "asians".
and ya it is ridiculous to say that all chinese people know kung fu. but once again, common sense.
