@tweeter_2017_ ào dái is Viet Nam. Being American and ignorant to a whole countries culture doesn't give the right to be disrespectful.

[Yelhsa @blueturtle]

Not being able to fit into the ideals of any country your ancestors came from.

[Yelhsa @blueturtle]

Men and women fetishising your ethnicity

[Yelhsa @blueturtle]

People not recognizing that not all Asians are from Viet Nam, China, Japan, Laos, south/north Korea...ect

[Yelhsa @blueturtle]

Being told I act too white to be an East Asian

[Yelhsa @blueturtle]

Not knowing which culture to follow and being criticized for following any

[Yelhsa @blueturtle]

People assuming you're multilingual

[Yelhsa @blueturtle]

Telling me I'm beautiful for an Asian girl

[Yelhsa @blueturtle]

Not knowing your true mix and percentages because your parent was adopted from a war zone.

[Yelhsa @blueturtle]

People asking what you are like you're some foriegn alien object

[Yelhsa @blueturtle]

The hardships of being a mixed POC, a thread

[Yelhsa @blueturtle]

U.S. sells white phosphorus bombs to Saudi Arabia, who, in turn, use them on Yemeni children. Here's your tax dollars at work, America.

[Yelhsa @blueturtle]

Im not a bank that can keep giving loans, but since y'all wanna keep treating me like one, you're gonna pay interest too.

[Yelhsa @blueturtle]

Saying you are naive towards my culture still doesn't give you the right to wear an ào dái like that

Stop turning Cleveland into an excuse for why you're against BML. Murder is murder no matter the race or belief system behind it.

[Yelhsa @blueturtle]

I hated this and loved it at the same time...
