[quote=Anonymous]Where do posters get this notion that Asians have book smarts but no social skills???? This really confuses me, as I've never met an Asian who lacked the social skills needed to get along with others, fit in at social events, etc. That seems to me a line Americans love to repeat because it somehow makes them feel better. Why can't people just acknowledge that Asians are studying/valuing education in a way that makes them very competitive both on college campuses and in the real world???? Instead of bashing, why not try to learn a thing or two? I'm sure if the posters really think about it, they'll have to admit that they don't know of any Asians lacking in social skills either. However, it sure feels good to say that. Simply repeating something that's been said/typed oft enough is much easier than true soul-searching and dealing with one's own insecurities.[/quote]
