If you simply ask any foreigner what are their impression of Asians
Their answer mostly revolve around quiet, humble and timid
Mainly because of our culture and upbringing
For some reasons, being too loud or involving in any activity that makes yourself stand out are regarded as being snobbish LOL XDD
Anyway, time is changing
We were brought up not to rebut whatever our parents told us
But kids these days are so smart, it's impossible for them to just take in whatever you tell them XDD
Eg the scenario below:
Mother: You're such a naughty kid!
Child: You're such a naughty adult!
Father: *rolling on the floor laughing*
*Mother pengsan, Child won*
Not only that, even the culture these days are evolving too

Oklah maybe you can argue that both group are of different genre
Hmm, then how about this example in Taiwan:
What a change!
Thankfully we're not seeing these in Malaysia...yet
I was still having the Asian stereotype of 'quiet, meek and timid' until today in the clinic...
In other words, he volunteered all the omit-able XXX infos without us asking
OMG TOO MUCH INFO! *screams*
I swear he would go into 'details' if the doc didn't drag him back to the chief complaints
If he were a youngster then I could understand
(Then again youngsters rarely complain also)
But this...a granpa looking as benign as Colonel Sanders??
Is it me or I'm just outdated? ><
