Sometimes I get very concerned when ppl (including myself, I'm always trying to keep myself in check) will just call any and all East Asian people they see on social media "gender" bc sometimes like.. it gets borderline close to using a culture as an aesthetic. Like not any of my mutuals but I'll be online in general and just be like... Hmmm why do some ppl see any random kpop boy or Asian model and think "gender envy" like... Is it rlly gender envy or do u just see East Asian ppl as like an aesthetic. This isn't to say that u can't see a kpop idol or a c drama actor or anything like that as being gnc af as the kids put it. Like I say the same stuff too but!! Sometimes ppl (again mostly young white kids) are getting dangerously close to using a group of ppl as an aesthetic and just dressing it up in progressive and trendy terms.

#to reiterate this rlly is not in response to any of u or anyrhing ive seen tonight im just being critical in general!!#i think abt this a lot and like i rlly try to check myself on it bc sometimes i aee things ppl post on instagram and tik tok and here and i #like... uhhh uhhhhhhhh uh 😕😬😥😥😷😷#but yea ... thats my hit take of the night.. good night im sleepy #and pls note!! other poc arent above this and like i myself rlly try to think critically abt.. okay king why do u wanna look like this dude #like be honwst with urself en and then clock myself in the face like DO BETTER!!#and im south asian!! like we can ALL be self critical sometimes.. its good for us #most of the times its not that deep but like.. little things can pile up yk #anyways this seems controversial mayhaps esp bc im not trans or east asian so if its not my place to say anymore then i 100 percent get tha #but i moreso mean like the little white girls on aocial media talking abt how they wanna look like kpop boys like 🤨🤨🤨#but yea!!#okay gn ♡♡♡♡#ask to tag
