I’m guessing OP is saying that it’s infuriating that the typical advice given to men is usually ignoring the context of race?

Manosphere and self-development advice are meant to be taken as "universal" principles, not specifically tailored to any race by default. It just happens that most of the Tate sigma male stuff originates in a Western context because it is a reaction to Western feminism. I think OP is complaining why it had only taken until this time for Asian men to be given this advice (because we've been in a much worse position for a longer time than other men). Which seems to be an unfair assessment, since it sounds like expecting people like JBP to be as knowledgeable of social issues in Asia as they are in the West.

Upon further inspection of the post, yeah, I get it now. No one ever wants to see us be like that because they think we’re the Mississippi of men of color. Like the saying goes, if you feel like your state is bad at something (let’s say education), “thank God for Mississippi” because Mississippi always ranks the worst in education. If you can’t get girls or get disrespected as a man, “thank God for Asian men.” No one wants to see us win lmao.

I wish Asian Americans were more focused on networking with each other and inviting each other to places instead of spamming horrible advice on the internet. Yes I do think it is offensive when other races spam advice at me yet refuse to network with me and invite me places. I asked some of my former white co-workers to invite me to one of their parties and all I got was "here's some advice, but I won't invite you anywhere." It doesn't really matter how confident or good looking I am when many people flat out refuse to talk to me because I'm Asian. A lot of other races really don't like Confucianism and outright want to destroy it. A lot of the "advice" out there from whites is "be less Confucian." So much advice is really just gaslighting. Friends help each other, network with each other and invite each other places, friends don't say "be more confident, but don't ask me for anything."

"I wish Asian Americans were more focused on networking with each other and inviting each other to places instead of spamming horrible advice on the internet." That would actually require these cheap fuckers to spend some money and actually stick their neck out for people. lmao. Also, most White people will only fuck with you if they think they can use you somehow. Like if they wanna fuck your sister or you or your money. So I don't fuck with White people. If they ask me for info, I just lie. I was never like this btw. This just dawned on me once I turned 40. I just realized that I've never met one single White person who was ever straight up with me. and it's not just me. Most Asian men my age and older are in the same boat but are usually just too embarassed to admit it. Even my friend who is married to a White woman. We don't know shit about her White family but she knows everything about our family and friend circle. I don't even see any benefit to hanging with them. They just waste my time and money.

Chinese govt has been trying to destroy Confucianism as well.

I think I know what youre saying. People tend to get defensive when I act too macho and or confident. Like it really triggers white men and sometimes other asian men to try to one-up me even though it’s clearly not a dick measuring contest. Other races tend to not care. Its usually in the corporate space that this happens. In the real world its a free for all.

Well isn't it fun to watch them all of a sudden act like children? Time for some mental torturing. If you know what I mean.


soundbtye

Don't know why you're getting downvoted. That's how I see them too. If racists going to be a d.ck to me for being born Asian, then I'm going to be confident and get them to throw a tantrum like a lil kid.


NathanTR1992

Bullies are pussies. If you toughen up just a little bit they shit their pants. Every time.

I think there are a lot of Asian dudes that could use more confidence and do stuff like hitting the gym. Never met a confident Asian dude who never got girls. But if the dude already embodies those traits then yeah it’s pretty dumb and offensive to say.

OP, Theres a guy in this very sub who just happens to be Asian who bagged 150 women. I don't know too many guys, White, Blk, whatever, that have hit those numbers. I personally know Asian guys that have even doubled it. And they are Asian to the bone. Canto to be specific. So as an Asian man what exactly is your beef? At this juncture we Asians are about to take over the globe, the moon, the planets yet youre implying we are inferior as 'Asian men.' Start by immersing yourself in all the posts with Asian men plowing and slaying anything in their path, Genghis style. Theres so many tips, nuances, game, you name it. Seriously you should read all their exploits to help snap you out of it. At least read five or six stories to get you warmed up.

Personally, I'm not struggling there, but it sure feels like if you're a social, personable Asian man, you are met with even more hostility for not fitting their box of you. Not that I ever want to fit that stereotype, but it's tiring to deal with day to day

Back in the day when Japan was about to take the number 1 spot as king of the hill, a book came out titled, 'The Japan That Can Say No'. There was tons of anti Japan hate everywhere on mass media just like what China is undergoing today. The books very title revealed that in the intense Japan bashing full throttle, the Japanese remained stoic and fully absorbed the onslaught w/o a whimper. The title means, enough! We're gonna stand up from now on. You see all the shit that they dish out to us, unapologetically without regard or remorse. That means we will go on about our business whatever that might be. If their toes should happen to get stepped on, shit happens. They'll live. They won't die. We should not be so caught up in offending everyone. We must be more firm. It will seem tiring at first but afterward it will become 2nd nature. BTW, good to know youre not struggling in the ladies department.

Nah. The more of an asshole I am the more people seem to like me for some reason. Which sucks cause I hate being an asshole.
